I found strange behaviour of displaying the reputation in SO. Surprisingly, I haven't found any topic in Meta regarding this.

Here is an example. In the answer repo looks like 18.8k:

When I hover, in the popup we see 18.7k:

The exact repo level was 18,796 and it haven't changed for all the test period. Moreover, several times I have updated the page and the same difference remained.

Bug? or I didn't get something?

Caching - the user popup is aggressively cached. Stop getting so much rep in a day :)

  • Yep, you're right. Now I have updated the page and the repo in the popup is on the same level as in the answer. I didn't believe that caching is soooo aggressive, not being in time with my slow answers today :)
