On a machine I've been using for several years:

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5             8.1G  6.8G  970M  88% /
/dev/sda13             17G  6.1G  9.4G  40% /opt

On my new non-lfs system:

/share                 97T  5.0T   92T   6% /share
/work                 194T  167T   27T  87% /work
/scratch              806T  685T  121T  85% /scratch
/corral               688T  235T  419T  36% /corral

BTW:

$ free
              total       used       free
Mem:      32913636   32844280      69356
