Worlds created in this version take up to several minutes to save when leaving the game

This may be related to large render distance - starting new world queues generation of lots of chunks and game needs to wait for everything to finish before saving.
Just tried with a 32 render distance world, and indeed it takes longer, but not minutes. It may be hardware related (SSD vs. HDD), but it seems very much intentional.
Okay I tested again and it is related to render distance, and "several minutes" was clearly an exaggeration on my side. I had distance set to 32 from trying to debug MC-138114 (it didn't help).
But there is a regression in save times - my results with world seed 77 (setup: Linux, SSD, i5-6400 2.7GHz, 16GB RAM)
Render distance 32:
1.13.2 - saving a new world took 2 seconds
try 1: 1.14pre1 - saving took 20 seconds for a brand new world
try 2: 1.14pre1 - a new world i explored a little by flying around in creative, saving took 40 seconds and then crashed with MC-147754
Render distance 20:
1.13.2- saved almost instantly
1.14pre1 - saved in 2 seconds
1.14pre1 - the more explored world, saved in 8 seconds (maybe it didn't crash because it didn't try to generate the buggy chunk?)
Unable to reproduce this issue myself.
