My home dir contains ~82 Gb. Compared to that, /usr and /var don't contain a lot (under 10gb).
I'm sure most people are similar, hence my comment.

10GB is still a big important chunk of disk, whether the rest is 20GB or 82GB.  Checking 
it separately *will* speed up each check, and separating it into a separate filesystem will 
make sure that errors on one part won't mess up the other part.

(Come to think of it, I suspect that the fsck speed is more dependent on number of files 
than data size, though I don't know for sure.)
