With performance->cache set to normal, an anonymous user will not see the guestbook updated after he submits the post. Not even by pressing F5 or ctrl-F5. This doesn't happen with registered user or with cache=none. Seems drupal doesn't register a change of node when anonymous user submits the post and serves the old page.

I tested this on linux firefox and konqueror.

I just discovered that I am having the same issue with 4.7. In my case, the post is actually being stored, but not displayed if cache is enabled OR user is logged in.

Had the same issue, but circumvented it by using CacheExclude: http://drupal.org/project/cacheexclude
