defragment on Cluster leads to timeout of cluster services

Hi Managers!

After evaluation of the timeout messages of my cluster services I could break
it down to the defragment cron job:
when this jobs defragments one Advfs domain (user_domain)
the cluster services check routines are running into timeout which sometimes causes
a stop and a restart on another member of the cluster.
After deactivation of this defragcron everything went well.

Is there a possibility to run defragcron without hitting the performance of the cluster?

Now the details:
TruCluster V5.1 1885 alpha

#32 21 * * * /bin/cronrun && test -x /usr/sbin/defragcron && /usr/bin/nice -n 20 /usr/sbin/defragcron -T 60 -t 30 -l
/usr/adm/defragcron ... user_domain ...

(/bin/cronrun makes sure that defragcron is only run by exactly one member of the cluster)

Any help would be appreciated!
