Refresh Button Won't Refresh

Sometimes I update a page on one tab and refresh another tab with the same page to see the changes. However refreshing does not refresh the page and changes can take a few minutes to show up no matter how many times I hit refresh. This is not constant. Sometimes it works fine, other times it doesn't.

I have tried: Holding down the Shift key and left-clicking the Reload button Pressing "Ctrl + F5" or pressing "Ctrl + Shift + R" Clearing Cache and Cookies Turned off all Extensions Started Firefox in Safe Mode

I switched to Firefox from Chrome earlier this month and this problem has never happened in Chrome.

Is there anything else I can try? It's not life-ruining but it is a little annoying.

Thank you!
