UFS is fragmentation resistant by virtue of its allocation algorithms. It still get fragmented under certain patterns or if free space gets low. I'm not sure if FreeBSD did any online defragmentation back then, maybe it does now with softupdates? I know Linux never did only deframentation with ext2/3 (despite being inspired by UFS), although it did have an offline e2defrag tool. But yes these designs generally seemed to be much better than FAT under DOS or Windows at avoiding excessive fragmentation. |
