e4defrag - its in e2fsprog's git. Its still an early version and does
not alway succeed with defragmenting files (at least it does never
make things worse), and it depends on kernel-2.6.31.

My partition was quite heavily fragmented after a year of rawhide updates ;)
(and because firefox's places.sqlite had over 1800 fragments, instead
of ~11, which made it painful to use).
