These tests are failing together in tandem. They always fail on the same test runner together. I have tried to reproduce this locally but have not succeeded yet.
They all are failing with the same message of "response source: Network" instead of Disk cache. Some test upstream may be setting a bad state or the system is falling into this state.

This looks like it has been happening for the whole history

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

We have many bugs about http/tests/cache/disk-cache tests, including generic bug 149087 and bug 172662 that are very similar to this one, for a total of 20 open bugs with "http/tests/cache/disk-cache" in the title. Antti tried to fix these before, but obviously more work is needed.

We should clean up the bugs though.

[Brent Fulgham]

Current history shows these tests are no longer failing. last failure was on r256612
