This is one of the things I find really hard to get Windows users to
understand. They just won't believe that a company like Microsoft would
still be using a filesystem that needs defragmenting if it were possible
to design one that didn't. I often wonder why myself - after all, they
must

In normal use, files never become fragmented enough to affect performance. In
a (loose) sense, files are intentionally fragmented in a controlled way so
that fragmentation doesn't cause problems.

No and yes! There is a minimum block and fragment size. In this case

Why should you want to do this? There's no harmful fragmentation in
the UFS of FreeBSD unless you exceed the max capacity of 100% which is 92%
when looking closer but

None as I know. Usually there is no reason to defragment a ufs partition.
