Well, that rather depends...  For some people, *efficiency* can mean not
sitting through an entire huge drive do a fsck thanks to only one
partition needing checking.  Or using different file systems and/or
mount options on the different partitions.  Or putting certain
partitions into faster parts of the drive.  Or putting certain mount
points on partitions that aren't going to get fragmented by other
things.

Some snippage when you reply, PLEASE!
