![]() In a commercial environment ( where productive time is a valuable asset ) then defrag can make a difference, especially in the area of employee satisfaction D ![]() I am not suggesting that you can turn this into a general statement, but you can not neglect the findings either.Īll I am saying is that in my personal environment, I don't care that much as long as my machine performs well. That indicates that on this particular MB, we achieved an increase in performance ( of which the loading of spreadsheet is the only relevant one ) When we tested defrag on the MB, we had the following situation: MB 2.26 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB/5400 rpm, OS X 10.5.8, 7% fragmentationģ x cold boot to logon screen, no apps loaded at startup = 38 seconds, after defrag 26 secondsģ x load openoffice ( cold boot ) = 12 seconds, after defrag 9ģ x load a 7280 KB spreadsheet ( cold boot ) = 18 seconds, after defrag 12 seconds As such, one of the tests was a defrag on our test MB.ĭuring these 8 months a lot of apps and data have been installed on the MB and removed, 4 x OS's upgrades, you name it. ( we use PerfectDisk )įor 8 months now, we are investigating to replace the winxp machines with MB's and we are running all sorts of tests to assess the economic and techical feasibility of switching. ![]() Frequent defragging the disk is required to keep the system running at top speed. ![]() We currently have a sales-force on the road with winxp machines running an application using a MySQL database and lots of large spreadsheets, which change daily. Maybe I can quickly share some ' live ' results on defrag ![]()
