Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.11; rv:46.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/46.0
Build ID: 20160502172042

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open about 10 tabs to different URLs  (I am not sure if this step is essental)
2. Firefox/Preferences menu
3. Click Advanced Tab on left
3. "Clear Now" Button in Cached Web Content  (Override automatic cache management is not clicked)




Actual results:

The cache is not cleared.  The only thing that happens is that each time you click "Clear Now" the cache size displayed shrinks by a small percentage (5-30%).  
This is very annoying as it takes sometimes 40 clicks to completely clear the cache.
This used to work properly 6 months ago.


Expected results:

The cache size displayed should have gone to after the first click.  This is the way it used to work.
