You don't really defrag Mac computers, like others said they are like linux/unix operating systems and don't really require a file cleanup or defrag system. If your computer is running slow I would look into how many programs are running that you don't use or don't need and close them or un-install them (if there are any) and if everything looks good you can always have more ram installed to speed up your system overall.
