VPS folder = "Temporary Internet Files" folder for opera?

i just found out i have two opera profile folders:

C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\ <-- v9.27 and older
c:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\ <-- v9.50 (tempfiles?)

the last one grows up to 200mb per session, reminiscent of IE's "Temporary Internet Files", and slows down my browsing. i have configured opera to clear cache when exiting but the VPS folder still contain old files. what happened to opera?

c:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\VPS

c:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\VPS = Quick Find data
c:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile\cache4 = Temporary Internet Files

When you connect to a secure site Opera will contact the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) of company that issued the certificates for the site you are visiting — if a certificate becomes compromised it can be revoked. To save time and avoid overloading the OCSP servers Opera caches the results of these checks.

is there a config setting that will delete the contents of the VPS folder when exiting opera? something similar to emptying the disk cache.
