Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: e2fsprogs

My ext4 root file system is automatically checked each 33 mount count.
During this check, e2fsck is collecting many statistics like the dis-
contiguous blocks ratio.

Why not using those collected informations just after the check in order
to defragment the oldest files.

In order to prevent harming the boot process, I think e2fsck should
defragment only the ~90 older files (with a minimum age of 1 month for
example).
