With this in mind, selecting a suitable partitioning scheme can minimize
any fragmentation issues.

For example, areas of the filesystem with a large turnover of files can
cause serious fragmentation.  Therefore, it is a good idea to keep these
areas as separate partitions, e.g. /var/mail for a mail server or
/var/spool/news for a news server etc.
