SearchObjects files

I am trying to understand if there is any new decisions or answers whether to keep these files or not.
I can only see this old post on SearchObjects

I can see it keep on updating the new locations found for those images whenever we run a script; and trying to understand if it really helps anyway for further script run like speedy finding the same or anything. If not, can we just ignore those.

Appreciate any inputs especially from Eggplant support.
