    I don't *think* anyone else has said this so far, but will /usr in fact grow
    much? Don't really see that it should unless you add a lot of things
    to /usr/local ... I'd expect to see more growth in /home, /var or maybe /srv
    if you're serving things - are we sure you won't just get away with your 94%
    well into the future.

    Put me right if I'm talking nonsense,
    Best
