When auto-save is slow it can be very intrusive because it freezes Blender at unexpected times. Often people have a habit of saving frequently anyway, even more often than auto-save would. In this case it seems unnecessary to auto-save as well. This patch restarts the auto-save timer when the user is saving manually to avoid the unexpected freeze in many cases.
