Apparantly, Apple is interested in porting Sun Solaris' ZFS to Mac OS X. From the zfs-discuss mailinglist: "Chris Emura, the Filesystem Development Manager within Apple's CoreOS organization is interested in porting ZFS to OS X. For more information, please e-mail him directly at [email address]. Speaking for the zfs team (at Sun), this is great news and we fully support the effort."

A disk won't get fragmented just because of I/O going on. It will get fragmented if you're appending to files after you've consolidated all of your free space (and packed the files in close to each other).
I call bullshit on this test, as I deal with 3-4 PCs getting benchmarked every day, and fragmentation only goes up minimally (ie. 3%) every few days.
