Yes, I'm seeing it on ext4.

All my filesystems are ext4 (except for /boot).

After upgrade to Karmic my /var was about 85% full (+- 5%). Scanning the
database took 30 to 45 seconds each time I tried to install something.
After doing the defrag from that forum post it takes under 7 seconds.

I'm doing an "apt-get clean" every now and then and my /var is usually
at 50%, so I believe the greatest fragmentation was during the upgrade.
