How does the cache work for the plugin?

[Mark Guzdial]

One of the development problems I had when writing Active Essays was 
that uploading new revisions to projects didn't seem to get seen by 
the plugin.  I'd use a project (say, synthesis.pr) and find a bug in 
it.  I'd fix the bug, upload a new one, and then access synthesis.pr 
again -- but the bug would still be there!  I'd then re-upload as 
synthesis2.pr, and the bug would go away.

Would restarting my browser help?  I'm guessing that the plugin is 
cacheing projects.  For how long does the cache last?

Thanks!
