The Web Script code already turns caching off (see line 81 of 
org.alfresco.extension.bulkfilesystemimport.webscripts.BulkFilesystemImportStatu
sWebScript [1]), and caching  was confirmed to work correctly on earlier 
version of Alfresco, suggesting that this is a bug in the Web Script framework.

I would recommend creating a cut down test case that reproduces the issue 
independent of the Bulk Filesystem Import tool, and submitting a bug report to 
the Alfresco bug tracker [2].  If you're an Alfresco Enterprise subscriber, you 
should instead submit a support ticket via the Alfresco Enterprise network [3].
