Follow on to Linux Partitioning:

I've been getting some mixed signals about whether or not to actually put
/tmp in a separate partition or not. When answering this question keep in
mind that this is for a home desktop PC.

I honestly think that /tmp being in its own partition would keep
fragmentation down but it could have some negative side effects when /tmp
files up. What do you folks think? What would be a safe size?
