  does anyone know if there is a config file option to turn off all
  caching in Polipo?

If you look at the Polipo manual, there's an index.  If you look at the
index, there's an entry for uncachable.  If you follow the entry,
you'll find the config variable uncachableFile.

Thank you, I have a recollection of reading that section and not really 
understanding it - I think I would need a good understanding of how caching 
works and all the directives first. From what I read, you have to know in 
advance which URLs you don't want cached, and put them in uncachableFile. 
That's not really practical. But thanks for trying to help.

 Have you tried connecting to http://localhost:8123/polipo/config? (and
 setting CacheDir to /dev/null there if nothing else works)

Hi,
Polipo is on port 8118 for Tor: anyhow, Firefox won't connect to localhost - 
it's 'restricted'.
Also disc cacheing is off already (critical for privacy), it's the memory cache 
that is still a problem.

I believe the answer is that you can't turn off caching. It's core to
what polipo does. But perhaps Chris or Juliusz will contradict me.

 Polipo is on port 8118 for Tor: anyhow, Firefox won't connect to
localhost - it's 'restricted'.

My guess is that's actually Torbutton preventing you from reaching port
8118 or port 8123, not Firefox preventing you from reaching localhost.

I think you have to compile it without caching.  Have you tried setting
chunkhighmark and objecthighmark to 0?

Thanks for the suggestion; I don't compile myself.
/Applications/Vidalia.app/Contents/Resources/polipo.conf:62: unknown config 
variable diskCacheRoot
/Applications/Vidalia.app/Contents/Resources/polipo.conf:71: unknown config 
variable localDocumentRoot
Impossibly low objectHighMark -- setting to 16

almost but not quite :-/ it's still caching small files at least.
