Open any css or js file
Wait twice the time duration before going to any other page

@w13ear The session does not end after x minutes and you are not logged out after x minutes.
What does happen is that the session does end after x minutes of inactivity. However it is not possible to determine activity when you are inside an editor and we wouldnt want you to be logged out in the middle of writing an article or editing a template. So on those pages an additi9onal script runs to keepalive the session.
So on a list type page you will be logged out after x minutes of inactivity but on an edit type page you will not be as the script is keeping alive the session.
Hope that explains things.

Closing this issue because this is expected behavior as @brianteeman explained above.
Have you enabled shared sessions in Global Configuration? If yes, then the described behavior is as expected because that parameter means that the session of frontend and backend of one user is the same session.
