hfs_relocate

kernel[0]: hfs_relocate:

This indicates an issue with automatic file defragmentation or possibly Adaptive Hot File Clustering.

Hans,

You may find this technote useful. File systems can corrupt and by no means is HFS+ a perfect file system. I believe you have found the best solution for the issue.

Hans,

I'll point you to the man page for fsck_hfs . Note under BUGS: "fsck_hfs is not able to fix some inconsistencies that it detects." fsck_hfs is the program Disk Utility and fsck uses to perform a file consistency check on a HFS+ volume. I believe fsck_hfs is designed to fix only certain problems within the file system. This makes to program safe to use. It will not further damage the file system as other third party utilities can.
