A weird bug/occurrence

[Guglielmo Braguglia]

Hi Geoff,
have you a "fusion" drive on your Mac ?

Because on mine, with "fusion" drive, I have experienced some strange 
behavior, and ... not only with LiveCode ...

I think there is some sneaky issue with updates of caches on Mavericks 
with "fusion" drive ...
