I work with photo about 2 MB. Why temporary file is so big?

This is probably your scratch disk making itself visible. It includes not only the file, but all the history states as well. You can reduce the size by reducing the number of history states in your Preferences or by purging the virtual memory and RAM being used (Edit >Purge).

Working up a 3-foot poster recently, I hit my first 1-gig .PSD file. You can bet that I hit Edit>Purge often.
