Filling up linux partition

Hi all,
I see that I have about 2 gigs of my 10 gig partition left. I went
hunting for bloat and fund that /var is almost 2 gigs and /usr is
almost 4! Does this sound reasonable for a desktop installation? I
also found that /selinux 0 bytes big despite the fact that it does
contain files and folders. And there is a /srv directory that is
empty, along with /proc that is about 500 megs. What are /src and
/proc? Should /usr and /var be so big?

Thank you.
