I'm talking about the download directory where I tell it to save the file.It downloads the parts, compiles the binary, and leaves the parts. It should be deleting the parts after compiling the binary.

BTW, this probably happened when I thought another window had the focus and I started typing. I have no idea which character changes this behavior.

Are you talking in the cache, or the scratch space when saving, or... ?

If it's the cache (which it might be as pan used to delete cached
articles when done with them, at expiry, and presumably after it saved
the binaries too, tho I don't normally do enough binaries to be sure on
that, now it waits until it's bumping the size limits to delete), check
your cache size setting.

The old default cache size was 10 MB, small enough that binaries cleared
out pretty fast.  I've deliberately set a multi-gig cache for years and
don't know if the default has changed or not, but certainly, if you have
a larger cache (as I do deliberately), the change to keeping the cache
around and only deleting the group index data for expired/deleted
messages does change the behavior, such that now the cache size setting
is the only automated cleanup, and if your cache size is multi-gig, it
makes a big difference.
