Unless you have applied the "undelete" work referenced in SAK-1525:
http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-1525
once you delete resources, they shouldn;t be on your file system.
Without the SAK-1525 patch, records are written to a
CONTENT_RESOURCE_DELETE table, but they are inaccurate and
shouldn't be relied on.
