When you kill firefox process disk cache cleared, this could also be happening when firefox crashes, but I couldn't get my ff to crash otherwise than to kill it :)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Firefox and visit a few sites (doesn't matter which one)
2. Go to Options->Advanced->Network. Under Offline Storage check 
   how much disk cache is currently in use
3. Open Task Manager kill firefox.exe process
4. Start firefox and go back to Options to check current disk cache usage


Actual Results:  
Disk cache size is around 300KB.

Expected Results:  
Should be the exact same amount as before firefox.exe process was killed, in my case 319MB.
