Having a few systems now, all running Gentoo, I use to mount a NFS
/usr/portage from a central server, where all portage and "distfiles" are
stored for all systems.

And on some that do use a flash DOM, I plug a common hard disk and mount
"/var" to it while emerge'ing. A NFS mount would do if the network is fast
enough. And "distcc" always helps.
