I can't produce this bug anymore, so consider this resolved as it seem to be fixed in the latest version.

Seems like this hasn't been fixed in 1.11 (or maybe it's just my Switch problem?) 😞

Here's the video.

Also interesting fact — while playing recorded videos on Switch, playback slider was stuttering too (when freezing appeared in the game).

Update #1:

I remember I wasn't seeing any of the freezes before, but I was playing docked only. After I switched to handheld AND also log into my Microsoft account (for achievements) — things started getting worse. The size of my world was 10MB but after I traveled a lot — it became 60MB. I think after this I started noticing small freezes, then it became more and more visible. Freezes mostly appear during auto-save, also auto-save is very frequent, like, every 1-2 minutes? So the freezes appear around this period too.

I think we should also blame Nintendo for not allowing saves to be on SD card. I think internal memory can cause such stutters and freezes. But that's just my opinion, because if you search for speed comparison between internal memory and SD card — the difference is very small. Switch is kinda interesting but very strange (regarding performance) system.

Also maybe you should provide an option to increase or even disable auto-save feature? Maybe it will help somehow.

I hope developers will fix this problem because more and more users are complaining about this bug. We believe in you _{(well, me at least)}!

Update #2:

So, I'm trying to find the pattern to all of these freezes and I found strange behavior. I entered my world and started playing, the internet was on and I was logged into my Microsoft account. Two things happened before — I changed my skin to the new one (from the new pack with pets) and it keeps resetting itself every time I open the game (new bug?). Also, the background changed itself from jungle theme to village one.

I started playing and noticed NO lags or freezes at all. Auto-saving was saving my world like every 3-6 or even more minutes (not like every minute or so?). I was playing nicely and everything was fine until I paused the game and left my Switch on for a while. After some time it went to sleep mode. I came back, turned it on, clicked "Continue" and started playing again. And oh the hell begins — all the freezes I mentioned before came back! And auto-saving feature was furious and my world was saving itself, like, every minute. And I couldn't fix it anymore. Closing and reopening the game didn't help. Haven't tried to restart this moment, but I remember that this didn't help either. I don't know how my world becomes playable again, but now I know that it can (probably) become unplayable again if you put your Switch to sleep mode while playing in your world. And I mean REAL sleep mode (put it in sleep mode and wait a minute or more to let the console fully enter sleep mode).

Also about another bug: I remember having ultra frame-drop to 20-30 FPS when I was hosting a game on my Switch. But I haven't had them when the game was hosted by my friend or a player I was playing with.
