Which one of them do zsh
actually use? Can I clear out some of them or?
Because the compinit
mechanism of zsh creates the filename depending on some environment variable, here $HOST.
It's safe to delete them, but they will be recreated unless you add -D to compinit line in your zsh config
https://github.com/wurmlab/oswitch/issues/41
They are used to speed up the completion mechanism.
You can delete them and let it recreate the one you need.
