iPod Photo Cache size

It seems that this file is being larger after every iPhone / iPad to iMac's Sync .

OK, I understand that its the base data for my iPhoto pictures .


Is it recommend to delete / clear this file from time to time ?


Thanks.

You can delete it any time you want - it is one of the very few items that can be safely deleted from the iPhoto library


It does grow over time and a smaller one will be recreated on the next sync


Of course you MUST always have a good, up to date backup in case something goes wrong
