I do this every couple of days with Gentoo and I just leave the compilation going in a konsole in the background....it's not a big deal really. For big compiles like a new KDE, I just leave my pc on overnight, again it doesn't inconvience at all.

Yes but to stay bleeding edge don't you have to compile each time you download a new package?? I install the latest version of cooker each day. With Gentoo, doesn't that mean I'd have to comipile a lot of packages each day?? Mandrake does the compiling for me with Cooker yes??

That's the point. After you've done it once, you *can* forget about the compile time. But the performance benefits continue every time you use the program.
