However, what I see is that the same Web page -- my own on a Web

That would make sense if SeaMonkey's routine that checks the cache
before retrieving a remote copy is inefficient. Then the fuller the
cache, the more hunting it has to do before giving up, whereas it can
quickly evaluate an empty cache as lacking the desired content.


I always purge my cache on termination.  At [Edit > Preferences >
Privacy & Security > Private Data], I have checkmarks in the check boxes
for "Always clear my private data when I close SeaMonkey" and (under
"When I ask SeaMonkey to clear my private data, it should erase")
"Cache" and "Offline Website Data".  Thus, my cache should be empty on
launching SeaMonkey.


I have the disk and memory caches turned off. There's really no need with a fast broadband connection. And it used to drive me crazy when writing Web pages when SM would display an edited page from cache and I didn't see the changes I'd just saved.
