Easy workaround - place your /home and /var trees on separate filesystems
and mount /home normally. Make /var "nodiratime" so accessing directories
doesn't update their atime. Make / "noatime".
This is basically what I've been running here for the past couple of years
and it seems fine for me. Your milage may vary though (depending on what
software you run).
