Hmm ... it should work that way now. In fact, only admin users can force a page to refresh its cached content.

Though we are getting a spike in traffic with the redesign launch, New Relic still reports app server response times of <600ms. But WebPagetest confirms really slow load times. [1]

If anyone finds some gross offenders of page performance, please file a bug: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.mdn or better yet - send a pull request: https://github.com/mozilla/kuma !

I'm getting response times of 4-5 seconds, which I think is a lot.

This is mainly static content you got there, it's the easiest scenario for aggressive content caching. Just throw in a good Memcached server and serve the whole page from cache. Add some good expiration headers + etags and the website will fly. Unless you have problems with request queueing, which would be a completely different topic.
