On not too old RELENG_6 with a debug kernel (nothing much in /root,
/tmp is a symlinked to elsewhere)
...

  df -h
  Filesystem          Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
  /dev/ad4s3a         193M     71M    107M    40%    /
  /dev/ufs/t61var     387M    104M    253M    29%    /var
  /dev/ufs/t61usr     678M    155M    468M    25%    /usr
  /dev/ufs/t61home     24G    6.3G     16G    28%    /home
  /dev/ufs/t61misc     13G    6.8G    5.4G    56%    /misc
  devfs               1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev

So, just what have you been stuffing in /?  Now if /var is really in
/, then 200M is indeed close to the usage (175M) for comfort.
