Hmmm, like I said, I do this often and have never had problems before.
However, I suspect the difference-that-makes-a-difference is the
persistent cache files. With non-persistent cache files, iirc, the files
are stored in /tmp as temp files under unique names, so this kind of
problem can't happen.
Can anyone confirm my guesswork?
cheers,
Chris
