Optimizing & Defragmenting: A Few Questions

[Lt Major Burns]

basically, my understanding of this is:

Defragging is not something you will ever have to worry about on macos X, which is what we originally thought, UNLESS you work with files in excess of 5gb or so. at that point, defragging helps. if you don't work with files that big, then don't bother, you won't gain anything.

See, now *that's* the way an OS *should* be designed.
