This was the problem I had last night (overlapped extents), and it did take a long time to fix. Running fsck would not fix it, However, to be fair, I ran DiskWarrior first, then DiskOptimizer to defragment. Then I repeated this, because the two utilities affect each other to a certain degree. But DiskWarrior fixed me right up. I love that program.
