I find myself needing to repartition again, probably due to an increase
in the number of programs in /, presumably most are statically linked.
103% full is a bad place to be.

What kind of partition sizes and schemes are people using?
Another BSD suggests / swap /usr /var /tmp /var/tmp /home, possibly also
/usr/local and /usr/X11R6.  Anyone care to comment on that scheme?
It seems a bit overboard to me; I've found a mfs /tmp to be useful.
IMHO if you're going to have a disk partition ("slice") for /tmp having
another for /var/tmp seems redundant.
