I've often wondered if it made sense to keep /var on a separate partition. I did it for a time, but then gave up as I couldn't remember why I was doing it. I see from the official (if obsolete) Linux Filesystem Hierarchy document that the idea is to keep /usr read-only, but I've a feeling quite a few things are written to /usr nowadays. Also must be a bit of a bore updating the system? I see that web-servers keep a lot of fairly constant stuff in /var/www .
