I had a drive that was seriously filled.
So, I moved a very large directory to another drive and have proceeded to defrag the original drive.
The original drive is the drive with Windows XP OS files on it.
The only drive with page file allocation is the new drive.
But, when I defrag the old / the OS / drive, it shows lots of Gold blocks - meaning "Page File".
But there is no page file space allocated on that drive.
What gives?
Defrag .. when to stop?

I've just started using Defraggler. I notice that if I run it twice in succession then there's an improvement. I've seen the same thing with other defrag programs. So, I wonder if the algorithm has a "blind spot" or if there's an attempt to limit the time taken to "defrag". Might there be a setting like "do what you can in a hurry" vs. "do the best you can no matter how long it takes" ... which might be as simple as going to a "start over" loop until no further improvment?
