Turning off caching at the global level (from the Debug menu) would
simplify your testing.

There are places where the caching is disabled within the scope of a
function using a "ScopedFlagSetter".

The first action of the NodeRenderableBounded::RenderCached function is
to test the global caching flag and jump out if it's not set. (But note
that some objects /require/ caching and so override parts of the
NodeRenderableBounded functionality.)
