Q: Safari loading old pages?

Anyone else noticing Safari opening old pages on forums? While visiting several of my daily forums today, I noticed it loading pages that were from my visits last night or yesterday. I'm pretty sure I cleared my history last night, so it must be reading some invalid cookie data?

 

If you want to look for this, pay attention to forum pages that load possibly after you post. I noticed this twice on two different forums.

 

Anyone else having this happen?

    I am running Safari 9.1 on an iMac running os X El Capitan 10.11.4.

     

    I see this issue consistently, and have seen it for over a year now on http://forum.porsche356registry.org/viewforum.php?f=1 with no change.

     

    I enabled the Develop menu in Safari and have been watching the Network tab in the Inspector window.  What  I see is that clicking refresh for the page above runs that page's viewforum.php script.  Clicking back after reading a thread on that page does not run the viewforum.php script (at least not every time).  Instead it brings up an old cached copy of the page.  Hopefully this is sufficient information for someone at Apple to be able to reproduce the problem.
