Well, imho it makes no sense splitting of /usr/src.
Everthing in there is under package control.
/boot 80MB
/ 60MB
/usr 2GB
/usr/local 1GB
/var 1GB
/home 500MB
I think it's better to not have /tmp on the same partition than /,
because / is static and /tmp is frequently written to.
If you don't have enough space, I'd link /tmp to /var/tmp and create /var/tmp with /var not mounted, so you also have a /tmp, in case /var isn't mounted.
There are so many programs in Debian (all of them going into /usr), so there isn't much in /usr/local, except for kernel-sources (/usr/local/src).
