Is it possible to change the interval between server saves for joining players?

[EntroperZero]

On the busier servers, the game can become very difficult to play as people are constantly joining and the server is constantly saving the map. I know in older versions, the server would save every time, and at some point they changed it so it would only save every few seconds. Is this configurable? I know it shouldn't be set too long, because people will take forever to catch up, but I'd really like to be able to increase it a bit.
