Looking at a single user, I set the ehcache times to 60 seconds for 
everything.  In a 2nd run I also set the 
org.jasig.portal.layout.dlm.RDBMDistributedLayoutStore.fragment_cache_refresh 
time to 1.  However, the problem still existed for 4 to 5 minutes before 
the cache updated, as you can see toward the end.  At the end I've 
included the log for each login, I've bolded the interesting stuff that 
seemed to fix the layout in the last login which rendered correctly on 
the first render.  Tell me if these logs are useful or not.  If you have 
an idea of what the problem is I'll stop trying to debug it.

set all timeToIdle and timeToLive to 60 in ehcache.xml
