Please, reread the issue subject and text, not the comment. If the comment goes offtopic, it is a problem of the comment. We do not fix comments, we fix the problem described in the text of the report. It says to use TRUNCATE instead of DELETE. This is what we do in 4.3. Therefore original issue is no longer relevant. The original issue does not exist anymore. If you have another issue, create another bug report.

What would you propose? Not to clear cache?

You did :) Deom developer's view there should be one report for one issue. For example, if issue is "Change DELETE to TRUNCATE", than "DELETE or TRUNCATE kills my server" is a completely different issue and it should be failed separately.
