I think there is no strict correlation between the number of cached sources
and the number of cached HText's, the only thing currently is a recicling
mechanism associated with HText_free(). In fact, we may want to decrease HText
cache till 3-4 elements but expand the size of cached sources. This will
require a different lists for these objects. So we could solve the problem of
deleting of temp files separately from free_all_texts.
