 If '-r' is passed, files in dir will be defragmented recursively.
 The start position and the number of bytes to defragment can be specified by
 start and len using '-s' and '-l' options below.
-Any extent bigger than threshold given by '-t' option, will be considered
-already defragged.
-Use 0 to take the kernel default.
+Extents bigger than value given by '-t' will be skipped, otherwise this value
+is used as a target extent size, but is only advisory and may not be reached
+if the free space is too fragmented.
+Use 0 to take the kernel default, which is 256kB but may change in the future.
 You can also turn on compression in defragment operations.
