Re: Page file defrag - Vista
Interesting.

"Mac OS Extended formatting (HFS Plus) avoids reusing space from deleted files as much as possible, to avoid prematurely filling small areas of recently-freed space."

That makes sense in a way, given how big and cheap storage has become. If they get the coding right to ignore small blanks until a suitable file will fit that could certainly improve layout.
