Look at the source of the DynamicImageResource class. The getResourceState method does something like (sorry for the lame pseudocode) 'if image data is null then save and return value of getImageData else return the previous image data'. So its gonna call your getImageData() method once and save the value. This falls in line with the super class's (DynamicWebResource) javadoc that says:
very useful for things you generate dynamically, but reuse for a while after that. If you need resources that stream directly and are not cached, extend WebResource directly and implement Resouce.getResourceStream() yourself. It has nothing to do with HTTP caching, which it looks like you're trying to solve with your headers, but server-side caching. Anyways... in this case, getResourceStream of WebResource ends up calling getResourceState of DynamicImageResource. All you need to do is is override getResourceState (and therefore kind of overrides the behavior of getResourceStream) of your DynamicImageResource and ensure that it doesn't cache the result of getImageData() and you should be set.
