I apologise in advance if this is a FAQ entry -- i did read the slime doc, but failed to find an answer.
The thing is, after a sufficiently prolonged slime session i have tens in megabytes and hundreds in quantity of files of tmp.*.tmp-regex-matching names.
Slime does not seem to be getting rid of them, at all.
I understand well that these are temporary files in a location designed to hold temporary files -- but still -- do i have to remove them myself if i happen to never reboot?
regards, Samium Gromoff

The Emacs Lisp code should (and at least on my machine, does) delete the temporary file after connecting. Some backends create temporary files to implement C-c C-c (compile-defun), but I think those are also removed properly.
Are you sure those files are created by Slime? Which Lisp are you using?

Hmm, not so sure anymore. Sorry for the apparently false alarm.
