Well, it's been years (like 15 or so) since I gave it a go, really, so maybe I should try again. But, yes, holding Ctrl and then pressing X and then S seemed too cumbersome for an ordinary operation like saving your buffer (or frame?).
Back then I was also using vim in mswin mode where Ctrl-S would save the file, just like in Windows.
Interestingly, though, I still find :w<Enter> easier. Maybe it's muscle memory now, maybe because I don't need to hold a second key for two key strokes, maybe colon is easier for me, maybe...

I guess I need to check my habits more closely :)
