I'm a developer and I use Firefox as my primary browser. Since upgrading, I have to manually clear the cache every time I make a change to a stylesheet, some javascript - even html sometimes - before I see the change. I've set my offline storage to 0mb. Nothing seems to help.

I am having the exact same problem under Linux with 3.6.8. Was fine with 3.6.7

* Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
* Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
