Back in the days when I still used DOS, one certainly wanted to defragment periodically. The system became significantly more performant for a while. On Linux/Unix, I never bothered.

Yea, I remember those days too. Put the disk and get it started then wait until it finishes the next day. Sometimes it would take more time than that. I mean, when you got a puter with 64K of ram and maybe 200 or 300MBs of hard drive space, well, it takes a while. Oh, that 4MHz blazingly fast CPU helped a lot too. ;-)
