actually I had this in one plugin, which is why -


//define('MAGPIE_CACHE_ON', false); // Cache off
define('MAGPIE_CACHE_AGE', '60*60'); // in sec, one hour

thanks mate, this really helped a lot!
I was going crazy because I could not figure out why my rss-imported facebook status would not update.

AFAIK the only real concern involved with disabling the Magpie RSS Cache is the slowdown/timeout risk inherent with needing to fetch remote data. Ironically, the more feeds you’re showing the faster the cache will build, but the more likely it is you should be caching. I think it’s a wise thing to periodically remove the old stale content, but leave the current fresher feed content in the cache.

By “WordPress theme function file” you probably mean wp-content/themes/default/functions.php . OK.
