Good guess but the .bash_history file is only updated on logout.  See the 
following:

rjc@lyta:~$ tail -f .bash_history  &
[1] 25664
fg
man bon_csv2html
cd
cd debian/bonnie++-1.92b/
less bon_csv2html.1
bug ppp
cd
fg
su -
exit
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
rjc@lyta:~$ sync
