TBH I can't seriously tell. Usually a MySQL table can hold a million records before things 
become slower, a table with 90.000 x 8 nulled fields (9 years nulled students) shouldn't 
be too slow.

Otherwise you might want to write a little script updating all database references from 
the deleted users to a single dummy user for this case? You will have to gather in depths 
database knowledge about OTRS for this case.

What is about OTRS built in archiving mechanisms? I haven't read into this.

Regards,

Henning
