So Diskeeper are still around and now launching a tool for Defraging Hyper-V machines (both guest and host).
I wonder how many people remember the days of defraging their Windows 9x boxes and watching the little bars move around, feeling great when everything looked tidy and then knowing the machine felt faster when using it ? So my next question is how many people still defrag and does it really make any serious difference ? The last few times I’ve tried it on various machines over the years I’ve noticed no visable difference at all. Just an hour or so wasted waiting for the machine to finish doing the defrag so I can get back to using it 
.
Of course the likes of diskeeper will through great stats at you about how much it makes things quicker. But in the real world does defraging have much of a place anymore ?
More importantly am I bothered enough or do I believe it may have a real difference enough to actualy bother installing it again and see if there’s a difference ….. ?
