(or corresponding settings of PAR_CLEAN etc) and will be removed automatically if the packed executable exits. The cache-nnn directories are from executables NOT packed with --clean and will persist. There is only one cache-nnn for each packed executable. It is created on the first invocation of the executable. The NNN part is actually a SHA1 digest over what was packed, script, modules, warts and all; so if you modify you script and re-pack a different cache-nnn directory will be created whe you run it.
