By hot do you mean cool in hot weather? Earl is often cool, especially if theres a decent breeze, but can be midgy. Likewise Caley. Otherwise some of the higher spots like Crookrise, Lords Seat, Earl Seat are often cooler and get any breeze going. Hetchell can be OK as it's quite shady but can get muggy if it's humid.

Have never seen many midgies at earl crag - too exposed IMO
Will be going there this week if it stops raining

I can testify that you most certainly do, if the wind is blowing from the South it's totally sheltered.
