I have both Bridge and Camera Raw set to create distributed cache files. They are created in each directory that Bridge processes. In a directory with 105 PSD image files, one is about 16M and the other is about 44K. Yes, they take up some space, but I don't consider that to be excessive. That directory contains about 3.1Gbytes worth of data files and four more subdirectories. 16M worth of cache information seems trivial when you consider how much time it takes for Bridge/ Camera Raw to reprocess that much data and cache the thumbnails, etc. This is not a problem... BTW, I do seem to recall reference to Photoshop temp files not being deleted and accumulating on Windows systems, I think it was on Photo.net.
