I tend to believe for a home use system, it's best to have just a /
partition and a swap partition (because that
way, you won't have to do stuff like "Argh... No space left on /usr... mv
/usr/src /home ; ln -s /home/src /usr", the way I did with my first few
installations in the last century ;) ).
My personal recommendation for the swap file size is about
300 MB - Amount of physical memory installed
Most people won't ever need more than 300 MB virtual memory, and if you
do, you can still create temporary swap files.
