You can't really (reliably) put /var and /tmp on the same partition, which
is a shame. Other than that I like to keep an area seperate for them
just to make absolutely sure other critical portions of the filesystem
aren't harmed if an application goes haywire.
I use about .5G for each of those and they don't nearly get that full. I
can spare 1G on the disk so it's really not a problem for me.
