For me it's always a balance between how unstable my machine is and how long it takes to autosave the project. When the project saves fast I don't mind, but when it takes a while to save it really gets annoying. That said I got cocky and last night lost about 40 min worth of work because i'd set the autosaves at an hour. If AE could do it in the background that would be wonderful.

I don't think that the default makes that much of a difference.  In theory, you set them once, and then don't have to worry about it.

BUT… I've noticed since working on Ae CC, my preferences reset themselves often.  My output and render modules vanish, my cache disk locations set to a folder I didn't designate.

And this may be related or entirely different, but I can't get any of my settings to be either saved to, or retrieved from the "cloud."

So, getting the prefs to "stick" is more important to me than what the defaults are.



PS. Digital Rebellion Pro Maintenance Tools are invaluable for Pr.  I'm not a paid endorser either.

I wonder if you could work with Digital Rebellion in expanding their Pro Versioner tool to include AE support. I find that tool far more useful than a standard auto save feature with a default setting.  $.02
