What I am thinking of doing is compiling a package CD and a custom
stage3 tarball based on my current setup, so I'll have the same
optimizations (building on this computer), and none of the wasted time.
And I like USE flags.
That would become outdated just as quickly as any other distribution.
You'd have to sit and wait while it recompiled half the system for your
optimizations.
Not too much. Just set PORTAGE_NICENESS=19 and set Catalyst to make a
new packagecd, and update using the binaries. It is the USE flags that
I like, as well as the feeling of control I get from Gentoo vs. other
distros.
