Of course /tmp should NOT be on /. Either in its separate FS or on another
partition through a symlink.

/ should be as small and as write-free as possible. Mine is too small now for
a 4.0 system (/ has grown a bit since 2.0... :)) though.

It doesn't have to be that huge and -pipe helps a lot for C/C++ :)
