Defrag Freespace

My concept of defragging freespace (in an old DOS Norton SpeedDisk way) is to pack all files (unfragmented) in such a way that all freespace available is contiguous at the end if the used space...

Apparently this is not Piriform's concept... Can someone explain what is Defrag Freespace supposed to do? When I run it on a drive with plenty of empty space between unfragmented files, it just takes 2 seconds to report "Freespace Defrag Complete" and nothing has happened...

Is this question so absurd that it doesn't deserve an answer from people at Piriform?

I did search and read that before asking. Either the explanation isn't very clear or the function isn't working as expected. From the description I would expect it to make freespace contiguous...

I didn't realize this was a volunteer forum. I thought this was the Piriform official forum. My mistake, I apologize...

Thank you for your answer!
