Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0b9) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b9 When changing sync preferences in about:config, the changes are not reflected immediately. Steps to Reproduce: 1.Using a robust profile, set up a sync account. 2.Connect and disconnected from the sync server. 3.Go in about:config and modify some sync related preferences (services.sync.pref.sync.privacy.clearOnShutdown.sessions set to false then set it back to true. Actual Results: Changes are reflected with a big delay (up to 5 min). Expected Results: Sync related preferences changes in about:config should be reflected immediately.
