For people who really want to tinker with the ports system,
perhaps non intuitively, bulk(8) is the manpage that contains
the most exhaustive set of information about how you might
want to configure your system and the choices involved.

There were a post in ports mailing list with a patch for erlang port
update: ht
As a long time OpenBSD user I install from packages but also build from ports.
There is a usage case for both, but realize building packages is not a
"standard" system.
Twenty years ago building packages from ports was the norm, but not today.

the installer creates partition layouts for a variety of _regular_ usage
patterns.
Both of these situations you describe are not the normal pattern.
We don't want to over-allocate space to specific purposes like that.
Other systems do one giant root partition and then avoid these space
issues.
