When I take a look at this thread, I see a lot of ppl expecting too much
of a defragmentation tool. Please keep in mind that almost all linux
file systems will try to avoid fragmentation by themselves.

If you're really concerned or running a file server with a lot of small files 
(like e-mail), take a look at this article:

To measure *real* fragmentation, use their tool, posted in the german article: 
http://www.heise.de/open/artikel/Fragmentierung-224380.html - see their per 
script. I'm pretty sure tune2fs doesn't exclude device files etc.

Everyone else who is migrating to ext4 should stay with cp -a (or
similar) until Ubuntu ships e2fsprogs.
