Hi,
Don’t you think it as a drawback of postgres that such temporary files don’t get deleted automatically once the transaction gets committed or rolled back .
Could you suggest a good permanent solution for such case.

It is always save to remove those files.
The problem is to identify them.
Remove the wrong file, and your cluster is toast.
