Looks like it just copies files from one place to another in the hope that given the opportunity, the filesystem might arrange them with less fragmentation. It's not like the Windows defrag tools that first analyze what is fragmented, then rearrange individual blocks to try to put them in order (AFAICT). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
