Doing all that cache clearing in your browser won't do anything because it's
cached server-side. The urls are unique by version, and those are permanently
cached. Then, once a content update is detected (within 5 minutes using the
startup module) you get a new url which naturally bypasses cache because it's a
new url.

I'd recommend you try making another edit, then don't clear anything, wait for
upto 2*5 minutes and verify it does indeed not automatically update.

If after 10 minutes it is still giving the old version, then we've found a bug
in GlobalJsCss related to cache versioning, presumably its logic to build a
timestamp is not working.
