Any disk de-fragmenters out there?

I was at a DECUS seminar where someone asked how disk fragmentation
effected performance on Unix systems. The answer was that the file
system works best if things are NOT contiguous. (This started a series
of jokes about disk fragmenters ;) Unfortunately that's all I know.
Does anyone know what this guy meant?
