--- Comment #10 from Bawolff (Brian Wolff) <[email protected]> ---
Some more testing:

To pick a random redirect - I used [[WP:VPT]] (Since it gets edited a lot).

Downloading from N. America (not logged in obviously) at ~16:30 utc:

*I get a page last editing (according to the html comment) on 12 December 2012
at 05:54. That's 51 revisions that each should have sent purges to that
redirect, but did not.

Downloading from Europe (using the 91.198.174.225 en.wikipedia.org in
/etc/hosts trick to pretend I live in europe) things get a lot worse:

*The page I get has a last edited timestamp of 3 December 2012 at 21:30. That's
460 revisions which each should have triggered a purge, but none did.

-----

Additionally there's been several reports of images not being purged by squid
cache. This is more noticeable since logged in users get the squid version (but
in a way less, because it is less common to do image reuploads, which is what
is effected). [This is mostly bug 41130]
*?action=purge the image description page does not appear to be purging the
squid cache of thumbnails. It should be.
*On re-upload, the old thumbnail is not being purged. There have been several
reports of this in several places. For example:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Commons:Village_pump&oldid=84940049#Problem_with_new_version_of_image
as while as a recent message to wikitech-l about the full sized version of
[[bcl:file:Wiki.png]] not being purged. (Of interest, both the commons image
and the wikitech-l thread image only seem to be not purged from North America.
Europe squids are apparently fine. Which is odd as I would expect the opposite)
Also discussion on 'pedia
