FragExt is not your usual defragmenting software that you point at a system partition and let it do its work.

Add Defragment Now to the right-click menu

Read operations waste more time because all the bits that make the file are not in one place but scattered around the complete hard drive. Defragmenting the drive moves them closer to each other to speed up loading times.
