I guess you mean 9.5.0-P2, and if so, do you explicitly specify
max-cache-size?  If not, that may be an implicit reason for the
trouble.  The default max-cache-size of 9.5.0-P2 is 32MB, way too
small for reasonably busy servers.  Depending on your available
memory, I'd suggest specifying at least 256MB for a busy server.

Aside from that, we're currently fixing a bug in cache entry
management of 9.5.  This may also be related to your symptom, and if
so, it will hopefully be fixed in the next beta (or RC) version of
9.5.1.
