Safari 3 Stores Web Icons In A Database

I can use SQLite Database Browser to see what is inside:

Safari used to get slower and slower maintaining a huge folder tree of tiny web icons: I used to delete mine every so often to clear them out. This solution should cut down on disk space use and be much faster after months of browsing.
