I saw via email that I'd received some comments on a bug I opened, and went to
check it out in my browser, only to find those comments not there.

After a little while, it occurred to me to manually clear my cache and refresh
the page, and sure enough, I saw the comments. So I checked the headers, and
here's what I'm getting on the following URL:

https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4345

Cache-Control: max-age=14400
Expires: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 01:59:00 GMT

A 24hr expiration is probably not the best choice for a frequently updated page
of comments. I'd really suggest that the output of show_bug.cgi be uncacheable.
