did anyone say I use 100 MB for / with /usr? I just would not split 100MB /
from 1.9GB /usr but use 2GB / without separate /usr.
if I need to split something somewhere, it's separate /boot for making
booting process easier (or even possible)

I don't remember that happening to me. I rotate my files daily/weekly (on
different machines) and use /var big enough.

It would fill up 1GB filesystem the same way independently on filesystem
used - tmpfs (with swap big enough) or anything other.
Putting 1GB to swap and using 1GB /tmp on swap helps, when there are really
temporary files with processes working with them.
I'd try to find out who and why needs that big file in /tmp (why not e.g.
/var/tmp)
Working with files in /tmp is much faster if /tmp is mounted on swap. If
that makes your system slower, they probably even don't have to be in /tmp
(/tmp means temporary, any data that have to be preserved upon reboot, do
NOT belong there).

How many of memory do you have in those machine?
