You are deeply confused. /proc is a *virtual* file system; it does not
exist on disk. If you already have /tmp and /var in separate partitions,
then you need to figure out what files are growing ON DISK in your root 
partition.

Maybe you're running vmware as root, and /root/.vmware is filling up with 
stuff. Maybe you have a badly-behaved app using / for its temp files. But 
a properly partitioned system should not be seeing any growth of the / 
partition during normal operation.
