Hello folks.

Honestly, no messing around this program is amazing! It's also won an award. My wow loading times between zones have literally halved since running this program. Theres one option (which is reccomended by the developer) to Optimize by sorting all files by name (folder + filename). This means that literally your entire WoW directory will be in one big block on your hard drive rather than in pieces all over (which is what it will be like on your machines at the moment even if windows defragmenter thinks its clean).

Admitedly the 1st time i run this optomize it took the best part of 24 hours to complete (i have 1TB of hard drive space) and i was very dubious as to the gain/loss i was going to get from it but my god, it was worth it!! (please note that this optomization only has to be run once - after that the fast optomize option finishes my hard drives in about 15/20 mins) I have a loud hard drive and when i used to zone on WoW i could hear my hard drive seeking all over the place but now almost silent.

The forum for the program is very helpful and informative with the developer replying to nearly all questions etc. It's probably best not to hear it from me, but to have a browse through their forum and check it out.

It has no fancy GUI - command based stuff (but its not too hard), so i ended up doing a lot of ready first - but my advice if you are going to use this (which i really reccomend) is: (taken from main page of program)

What is the best defragmentation/optimization strategy for me?
 My advise for all computers is to run JkDefrag once with the "-a 7" optimization
(sort by name), and from then on automatically every day with the default "-a 3"
fast-optimize option.


Note: The "-a 9" optimization (sort by last access time) only works as expected
if you do not use programs that scan all files on disk (such as virus scanners and
backup programs), causing Windows to update all the last access times.

So if your having problems with loading times, give it a go! Tell me what you think.
