(Whiteboard: [nsbeta2+] fix in hand)
Build ID: 2000051720 (and current CVS pull, too)
If you delete the Mozilla disk cache directory (which is normally in
$HOME/.mozilla/<profile>/Cache), perhaps as the brutal and fast Unix
way of cleaning it out, Mozilla will not recreate it. As a side effect,
Mozilla stops using a disk cache.
Reproduction is 100% for me.
Reproduction:
- cd to your profile's directory ('cd $HOME/.mozilla/*/.' may work)
- delete the disk cache with 'rm -rf Cache'.
- start Mozilla, browse around, exit.
- verify that the Cache directory has not reappeared and thus you are
not using a disk cache.

I am running Mozilla build 2000060409 on Linux right now. I'm getting this same
bug. I'm not sure when the Cache appears at all. I'm moving this to New.

I propose this should be reassessed. Removing the cache directory to clean out
the cache is a common enough process. Plus we have the fix in hand. Clearing
minus for reeval.
