I think /usr/src is supposed to be used with CVS. My CVS repository is 1.3G,
which is under the 1.5G minimum that disklabel(8) allocates.

No need to mess with the partitions if you change the pobj directory by
setting WRKOBJDIR in mk.conf(5). /usr is also too small by default to build
very large ports, I assume you are expected to change the directory.
