    yeah, from OSX on you no longer defrag your hdrive. you need to repair the permissions and disk using the basic disk tool utility on your install/upgrade cd/dvd - just make sure you reboot from the disc instead of your hdrive.

    the hdrive directory is no longer managed the same way as in 9 so by repairing permissions and the drive with the utility tool you are of sorts defraging the database that maintains the files structure.

    other apps like cocktail etc can work ok also.
