We have set up on a VPS a WordPress blog. But, after we work a while, if we leave the tabs open in our browsers, there is upload traffic, in small chunks but quite often. We thought that it might be the WordPress's AutoSave feature, but we disabled it and the thing still continues. Here you have a small snippet from the log (the real domain URL replaced):

It is normal? If not, why? How can we get rid of it?

You should be able to find out using the Firebug console in Firefox. Enable the console then open the page in question. You should see some lines like this appearing:

POST example/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 200 OK 594ms
POST example/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 200 OK 882ms


On my copy of WP it only appears to be the auto save function but perhaps there is a particular setting or plugin that's doing something else in your case.
