Using the stabilized jellium model in two schemes of `relaxed' and `rigid', we have calculated the dissociation energies and the fission barrier heights for the binary fragmentations of singly-ionized and doubly-ionized Ag clusters. In the calculations, we have assumed spherical geometries for the clusters. Comparison of the fragmentation energies in the two schemes show differences which are significant in some cases. This result reveals the advantages of the relaxed SJM over the rigid SJM in dynamical processes such as fragmentation. Comparing the relaxed SJM results and axperimental data on fragmentation energies, it is possible to predict the sizes of the clusters just before their fragmentations.
