You do realize that RAM (Random Access Memory) excels at random read and write operations? This means that it doesn't matter that much whether the actual page is consolidated in one block or is spread out in pieces across the address space.   If you've looked up how SSDs (solid state drives) work, you'll probably notice that people recommend that you DISABLE Windows disk defragmentation. Why? Because an SSD, which uses flash memory chips, also excels at small random reads and writes. The only reason you need to defragment a hard drive is because the head can quickly read sequential data on a spinning platter, and seeking to another piece of the data involves a lot of "wasted" platter revolutions.
