OS partitioning

I'm getting 146G hard disk upgrade for OS from a 36G and OS will be 11iv2 pa-risc. How much you recommend that i can allocate for OS /, stand, opt, var, ) and swap (currently 6g with physical memory 6g)?

(home -- 20g i dont need much)

This will be an oracle datbase server and we have san for the data.
