Too much autosave

The game saves every minute sometimes only 20 seconds go by before I see the chest again. And yes I timed it I thought I was just over exaggerating it in my head but no it actually starts autosaving again within 1 minute. This wouldn’t be so much of an issues if not for the fact the games performance takes a major hit while it does it sounds don’t play, blocks don’t update, placed blocks disappear sometimes dropping you in a pool of lava, monsters move in slow motion, food has to ate multiple times to get it down, over a minute long loading screen just to craft an item or use my inventory, doors don’t move, the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on and on just like the autosaving does it never stops. 90% of gameplay is unplayable because it won’t stop saving. Give me the option to change the trigger time or to disable it and let me save manually this is beyond ridiculous
