A 2.9GB /usr at 84% full should have >300MB free... so unless you're
planning on getting close to that, it's not clear to me that you have
a problem.

That said, it's been my (limited) experience that a common consumer
of /usr space is /usr/ports/distfiles; once the port is installed,
I believe that the distfiles may be blown away with impunity.  (And
a "make clean" ini the port directory might be useful -- as well as
removing some port trees that you're not interested in.)
