They are most certainly process IDs , they match folder names in
/tmp/gambas.1000/ and in /proc/ that are the process IDs of the program.
they appear when i run a program and auto-delete when i exit the program
without Quit.

so my assumption/question was the folders in /run/user/1000/gambas/ are
attached to a particular process and that process only and if that process
has gone (crashed/hard quit) then their JIT dirs are obsolete.

that's what I meant.  you seem to be saying the folders in
/run/user/1000/gambas must be kept as they will be re-used by JIT. but that
makes no sense as they are tied in with process IDs and with a normal
application close (no quit) they self-delete

But you disagree?
Are they supposed to be a re-used cache across different programs
instances? because i do not think they are.
