There is no Proof that registry Defrag does anything benificial.
CCLeaner is a Crap Cleaner. duplicates finder removers are many, and not all duplicates are Crap.
These ideas are not new and do not, IMHAEO, appeal to the purpose of CCLeaner

ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

"Unlike Registry Cleaners, defragmenting the registry can improve performance.
Paging and Registry file fragmentation can be one of the leading causes of
performance degradation related to file fragmentation in a system."
[Dr. Mark Russinovich /Windows Sysinternals]

Since CCleaner includes a -Registry Cleaner-,
CCleaner needs a -Registry Defragmentation- Tool, too.

I'm inclined to respect the opinion from Windows Sysinternals and have used their Pagedefrag utility.
Interesting thing though ... even after years of editing the registry using regedit and cleaning it using CCleaner, Pagedefrag has always shown no fragmentation of my registry hives.
