Partition Scheme



I am installing Debian 3.0 Woody on a new machine with a 80GB hard drive and
512MB of RAM.  It will be used as a workstation.  I have read the
installation manual, but still have questions about partitioning the disk.
Minimum values are usually given, but no discussion of max or optimal sizes.
The following are given in
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch-partitioning.en.html
/   100MB
/usr 500MB
/home 100MB per user
/var 300-500MB
/tmp 20-50MB

What would be the appropriate and desirable scheme for an 80GB disk?

David
