Disappearing Time of Dropped Items

How long does it take for dropped items to disappear?
Thanks in advance.

If I recall correctly, it takes 3 minutes for items to disappear.

That sounds about right. Give me just a few minutes, and I'll time it.

Edit : Okay, if you're looking for completely exact times, sorry for your luck. I was using my cell phone stopwatch. Anyway, I dropped an orange mushroom cap, and from the time it hit the ground, to the time it started to fade away, it took 3 minutes, 2 seconds. So, as Dyxanije stated; about three minutes - give or take.

Again, this is only for an orange mushroom cap. For all I know, different items could have different disappearing times.

It happens to the best of us. =P

There's some variation in time, items vanish in chunks every couple seconds.
