I recently installed a new server, and noticed that it is using
/var/cache/distfiles rather than /usr/portage/distfiles. looking at the
documentation, it seems that is the new default, and it says "new

i use my amd64 distfiles in my x86 chroot using the portage variable
PORTAGE_RO_DISTDIRS. Any distfiles that are not present/incompaitable are
downloaded by the chroot's portage.

While updating today, I ran out of space on /usr. Looking closer at what was
being used, /usr/portage is taking about 50% of /usr. Can this be pruned

/usr/portage/distfiles contains the sources of everything that you have
installed.

Man eclean should help. I think it is eclean distfiles for the command.
Hope that helps.

Yes, there is no risk, but there are a much better solution, it's called
distclean. You can search for it on forum. It is a script, which will
remove the sources of packages what are NOT in portage already.

Until you recompile your kernel, reboot and find your network drivers
