Sorry...replying to myself...any how... Yes, I had been seeing it for a while, primarily over SSH. Why it fixed itself? I don't know, but I would guess the portage cache regen on the nightly had something to do with it too. Any how...hopefully it's fixed...but I would guess it'll happen again, so I'll test out more when it does!

Well...I got to trying the methods out tonight...and first started with a 'time' of my standard procedure... $ time emerge world -vuDNp real 1m41.658s user 1m8.664s sys 0m16.921s $ time emerge world -vuDNp real 0m36.697s user 0m35.026s sys 0m1.124s That was two runs right in a row...but no where near the time level I saw the other day - which was well over half an hour. (I went to bed before it stopped the other day...) I am going to guess that it was a portage cache issue and the daily update fixed it, or something. Any how...will keep the ideas in mind should it happen again. Thanks All!

Is the second run significantly faster, if yes chances are high that there is a problem with the portage cache.
