Comment (by sooskriszta):

 The huge issue is that BuddyPress wipes out the whole cache for WordPress.
 So if someone logs into BuddyPress, then from that point on, even (not
 logged in) visitors to the Wordpress part see uncached pages.

 At maximum BuddyPress should wipe out cache for BuddyPress section to
 account for activity and other freshness-focused actions.

 But:
 1. Login is the wrong trigger. Post or other actions would probably be
 better.
 2. Wiping out the cache may not even be a good answer. Perhaps logged in
 users can be shown uncached versions.

 But even all that is unnecessary. WP Super Cache has an option to disable
 cache for logged in users...so they can always see the "freshest" page
