As I've gutted most out of the kernel for #OS1337 myself...

If you're on #ext3 / #ext4, add data=journal, metadata_csum and journal_checksum (the last two are ext4-only) to your mount options, it's quite important to have some bare minimum of usability (still won't help with partial writes, you need transactionality for that).

- e2defrag (https://launchpad.net/e2defrag): ultra old, doesn't compile (undefined reference to `HOLE_BLKADDR')
- shake (https://github.com/unbrice/shake): in userpace, not for image files (?)
- defrag (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/defrag): weird script, apparently equally inappropriate
- e4defrag (https://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/) doesn't work for ext3 partitions
