Items of deleted characters

Purely out of curiosity here... what happens to items of deleted characters? Do they get wiped along wth the character? I'm only wondering, because if items that will never be used again continue to exist in depots, that would waste a lot of server space.

The "items" are some numbers in the database, related to your character. No character, no items.

The database consists of different tables, holding e.g. the data for the items in your depot or your characters stats.
However, if the general entry of your character is deleted, all the items will vanish too (along with the skills and so on). postgreSql allows these kind of dependencies (if there is no entry for a player with that ID, these items do not exist: blah).
