So much for that wiki entry. BTW, I ended up putting...

media-gfx/graphite2
Btw, I don't think that USE flag is useful for anything, unless you put
the graphite optimization flags in your CFLAGS (-floop-interchange
-floop-strip-mine -floop-block). If you don't use those, there shouldn't
be a reason to enable the graphite flag.
Is there any benefit from using graphite and these CFLAGS on a current Gentoo
system?
Using a simple google-search, I can't find anything recent.
What Rasmus said, but the differences aren't going to be noticeable in
general use. For heavy number crunching (like video encoding) or huge
batch jobs or high-traffic servers maybe, but for normal desktop PC use
there's not going to be a difference.
