I suspect the heavy fragmented files to the cause of the IO wait
grows (PostgreSQL on WIndows).

How to cope with that?

I would first investigate that it's *really* the fragmentation.
As a database does a lot of random IO, fragmentation isn't such a big issue.

You could use e.g. contig[1] from SysInternals to de-fragment the data files 
and then check if that really improves performance.
