Hi Allan,
I think you are referring to Disk Cleanup for removing unwanted material. The 
Defragmenter only rearranges parts of files into an order that puts the parts 
closer together, to reduce memory search time.

  Like everyone I've had difficulties with large documents and Word.  I'm not
  sure how Acrobat works, but when HDK converts a doc to Help, it does a
  conversion to RTF, followed by some database processing followed by a
  compile.  This can use a lot of memory.  Turning off TSRs certainly helps,
  but running my memory defragger helps more.

  The memory defragger cleans out all the memory that should have been let go
  but wasn't.  It can make a huge difference.

  Other thoughts:
  Don't try to do the conversion over a LAN (Acrobat local, doc on LAN),
  because the server memory allocation can interfere.
  Make sure your local hard disk has at least 50% free space.

  Allan
