Heck, ext2 (read: decade+ old technology) never had more than 3.74%
fragmentation on any filesystem I ever saw.  It was self-defragmenting.  If
an fs can't manage to get something right that was done in '94, there's an
issue.  Remarkably stable, too--only time I ever lost data on ext2 was with
actual hardware failures.  For a 1994 fs, it was one of the best.
