From the Vim help file:
"The swap file is updated after typing 200 characters or when you have not
typed anything for four seconds. This only happens if the buffer was
changed, not when you only moved around."
If you have installed Vim you can read the details by typing ":h swap-file". Scroll down some pages till the "Updating the swapfile" heading.
