Default Well crap....Disk Defrag problems?

I was under the impression for quite some time now that when you run Disk
Defrag on the schedule that it actually defrags the drive when you tell it
to. Now it seems that it really doesn't, it just goes out and checks to see
if IT THINKS IT NEEDS IT, and then goes from there. Because of starting to
use my systems sleep mode more often, I've found it necessary to run DD
manually and it seems like to me that it hasn't defraged the drive AT ALL
this last YEAR and 1/2. I say this because defrag has been running for 2
hours now and is still going. I'm assuming that it is because it has never
really defragged my drive at all. Is my assumption correct? How would a
person go about checking that the drive has actually been defragged or not?
I mean really defragged, not the program defrag deciding one way or the
other. Thanks.
