Well, once you perform a full 'emerge -uD world' and then do it regularly (I
do it about twice a week), then the whole process takes ten minutes or so -- 
it replaces only the newly available packages.
Same applies to  'emerge -uD system' -- usually it quits right away without
actually doing something.
