Re: cut off after 30-45 minutes inactivity

Is it reasonable to deny resources to others when you are not using the
connection for the hour or hours (up to 8)?  If "it will be hours before 
[you] can get back to [your] work," then it seems reasonable, if there is
competition for scarce resources, for you to release those resources during
this time of inactivity. 
 
Is it really that difficult to save files (so that you don't experience
"a complete loss of [your] work"??
