To leave /usr only for apps/libs etc. That's maybe not 100% truth cause i use (in another partiton) a hardened setup. So think it's easier to manage permissions/access-rights (MAC-model) if at least /portage isn't in /usr. Till now never used this config though. /var is IMHO more appropriate for resources. PS: another one - glad i use separate /boot as it serves me to hold now two,later three different kernels (gentoo-sources,RSBAC,Xen-to go).
