I have been using Flutter for over a year, but recently I have noticed that the computer's drive is being filled with temp files caused when the flutter run is called. Every few days I clear the temp folder which is around 5gb.

Flutter doctor reports no issues:

Doctor summary (to see all details, run flutter doctor -v):
[√] Flutter (Channel stable, 2.2.0, on Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.985], locale en-GB)

[√] Chrome - develop for the web
[√] Android Studio (version 4.1.0)
[√] VS Code (version 1.56.2)
[√] Connected device (2 available)

Is this normal?
