Surely those who argue that ext3 does not get fragmented during install don't think that 248 extents is "not significant fragmentation". I assure you that I have done nothing on my system to try to fragment emacs. MikeThe fragmentation for your emacs is unbelievably high. I did not find anything yet fragmented in the hundreds, let alone several hundred extents. Are you using LVM? My system is setup in traditional partitions. LVM usage "seemed" slower in responsiveness, so I assumed it was more in fragmentsWhy "unvelievably"? Do you mean that you do not believe what my system says? Or that you do not believe my e-mail? Or that you find that it stretches your imagination? Or what? To answer your question, I use FC2. MikeUnbelievable simply refers to this fragmentation number sounds like it
Well, then I agree with you. This seems extreme.
should not happen. I have no doubt that you are seeing this on your system. Since you are running FC2, I assume the system is using regular partitions and that the system has been in operation for a long time. Sorry if the response sounded otherwise.
It was installed in late October 2004. Although, as one pointed
out, multiple extents does not *necessarily* imply fragmentation,
it is extremely suggestive, and indicates that fragmentation is
*likely*.

I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
