This isn't an error so much as an observation. It's roughly the same
as noting that 50% of the sentences in this paragraph aren't on single
lines; it suggests non-optimal performance but there's nothing wrong
per se. On my system, partitions tend to have 4-6% non-contiguous
files. 0.6% is very good.
