@mausolos: The BOM is a Unicode character which only applies to text, not binary files. I think what you have found is a bunch of files that happen to contain the BOM byte sequence (0xEF,0xBB,0xBF). I believe there must be some other explanation for your caching issues.

Same goes for your issue here: https://www.drupal.org/node/2370467

@achton Exactly what i was thinking.

@mausolos do you have issues with caching only when using Adminimal Theme? or in general?

It was only when using Adminimal Theme. In the end, I did some kind of workaround to avoid the issue entirely (though I can't remember what it is?)

Im closing this. Since i cannot reproduce the caching problem that you had.
If anyone get a similar issue, feel free to re-open and provide details of how to re-produce.

Thank you!
