--- Comment #6 from Ryan Kaldari <[email protected]> ---
There's no API request involved. The data is served as part of the page (same
as the old Orange Bar of Death functionality). You can turn off Javascript
entirely and it will still work the same. If you're logged in, the cache
headers on the page should be "s-maxage=0, max-age=0, must-revalidate". I
suppose it's possible IE is caching it anyway, or there is some proxy server
between the user and WMF that is caching it, but this wouldn't have been
changed by Echo. They would have had the same problem with the Orange Bar of
Death. The only way I can reproduce this bug myself is by using the back
button, but there's not a lot we can do about that. We could in theory fire an
API request on every page load (and even trigger it on using the back button),
but that would be a huge increase in API requests. I would only want to do that
as a last resort.
