Any file system can be subject to fragmentation with extensive read write edit operations, in my personal belief :) For example, my ext4 data partition, fsck states: DATA: 44595/26689536 files (4.7% non-contiguous), 42054610/106736384 blocks Although this is a pretty empty partition, I still have 4.7% non-contiguous.
