Currently I have /home on its own partition. Now I’m thinking about applying the same to /var.
We used to put /tmp on its own partition. That was Unix. I think there may be boot problems doing that with Linux. It may be needed when the boot process only has the root filesystem.
Check /var is not needed early in the boot.

I read somewhere that LMDE7/Debian Trixie nowadays holds /tmp in memory to gain performance…
Systemd boot does that.
Not sure what grub or uefi does.
After booting… several distros use ramdisk for tmp … is that what you mean?

I didn’t think about it deeper, but yes.
