I believe that OSX does a fairly good job of defragmenting itself. Not through a separate program (as Windows does, even if it can and does schedule it), but in the OS. Basically it does some limited defragmenting after any major app install.

That's not to say that OSX doesn't run better after a manual defragmentation.
