What the hell happened? This issue was resolved! Now it's back and worse than ever. 

With the most recent update, this issue is now worse than ever. It went away for quite a while, but it's clear that there is a serious problem with the autosave function. My world freezes for ten seconds at a time every few minutes now, and even on peaceful mode it's borderline unplayable. 

Can also confirm that this has not been resolved with the new patch in Switch. If anything, the freezes are now longer than before on my larger world (~300mb). 

The process for pushing updates to the Switch takes much longer than on other systems thanks to Nintendo's lengthy approval process. 

Be patient. 

Same issue here. This started happening with the new update yesterday. The game is nearly unplayable now due to how frequently it freezes. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible. 

Edit: I want to also add that I've since tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, clearing the Switch cache (which helped with problems previously), and playing offline / in airplane mode. None of this seemed to help with the constant freezing.
