my slow ass pc is the only reason i can think of.
i7 5500u
8gb ram
gt 840m
dont be fooled by the i7 and gt. look up their specs. id prefer a i3 over this laptop.
This claims to work for 2.8 but I haven't been able to get it to show up after installing... Help?
plugin not working on linux, i mean activate auto save option not showing even after installed in system as well as in home path.

And also as much as i know only windows detect directories in %temp% way, linux use / as directory finder (~/ for home directory)

Edit gimp-autosave.py with Notepad or VSCode and replace 10 with prefered number...
backupInterval = 10 * 60 to backupInterval = 5 * 60
But... Real question is why your Gimp crashes so often?
