A 3 GB /var partition with a 1 TB or 500 GB drive makes little sense for most people running modern sites. It will fill up in a heartbeat. 10 GB minimum is sane and at least 15 or 20 GB is far better. I know you can relocate things or request a different partition scheme at setup but it makes no sense for you to make this 2 or 3 GB /var partition crap the default in the first place.
