for system V machines:
i regularly use a program called packdisk on my /usr/spool/news.
another program called fsanalyze tells me that the above filesystem
takes about two weeks to develop >40% fragmentation. packdisk makes
that ~3% again. packdisk was posted to comp.sources.misc, volume8,
fsanalyze is in volume5. of course packdisk is somewhat dangerous :-)
