Question

Is it safe to delete performance session files for Visual Studio 2012?

I did profiling, and removed the session files only from the project but they were not deleted from the project directory. Now I have huge files, around 8 GB with extensions .psess, .vsp and .vspx, and I am not sure if it is safe to manually delete them.

Yes, if you no longer need your performance reports, you can delete them. You can either delete them from the file system directly or, if you prefer using the Performance Explorer in Visual Studio, you can delete your reports from there as well.
