Suppose $f : X \to Y$ is a proper morphism of varieties. Let $F$ be a quasicoherent sheaf on $X$ which is coherent on the fibers ($F|_{f^{-1}(y)}$ is coherent for all geometric points $y$, or similar condition). Is it the case that $f_* F$ is coherent on $Y$?
This easily reduces to the case when $Y$ is affine. Under some hypothesis one could try to apply the "cohomology and base-change" type theorems, but those all assume coherence of $F$ anyway...
