Not entirely sure what's causing it, but randomly posters will double post duplicates, but the time posted is always a good few seconds after the initial post time, so it doesn't happen concurrently.
I can explain why that's happening, as I'm one of those double posters. I write out a post, hit "post reply", and then the site throws up a "whoops, something fucked up" message. This makes me think that my message didn't go through, and I go to hit the button again (it may have been a couple of minutes between because I'll do something else, thinking my post went through). Unfortunately, the warning doesn't say that the message went through just fine, so I end up double posting by mistake.
That's been happening to me too. I started just refreshing the page after the "whoops something happened" message and see that my comment did post so i don't double post.
