trashing from PS CS file browser

Today I noticed that when I trash items using the file browser in PS CS, they seem to not quite disappear. I did a little test... made a folder, dumped a ton of duplicate photos from a full CF card in there and noted the the space on my drive. Before this folder I had 16.3GB, after, 15.97GB. OK, so off to file browser in PS, there I selected all but one of the photo files and trashed 'em by clicking on the garbage can. Check the finder window and the files are gone, except the one remaining, BUT, size is still 15.97GB. Where are they hiding? I remember it being different on the PC, so I fired up PS on there (haven't done that for a while) and in there, when I trash from file browser, the files actually go to the windows recycle bin - then you empty that and space is restored.
Hmmmm. Anyone?
Hmmmm. Anyone?

You can purge the history to reduce your PS temp file. That's the one that 'eats' your HD space temporarily
Edit -> Purge -> [option of choice]
