When I was managing multiple servers, I would have a cron job set to eix-sync daily (the maximum frequency Gentoo recommends syncing), then once a week I would have emerge -DNpvu world   e-mailed from cron.  I would then review the e-mail and see if I wanted to upgrade.  If I didn't, I'd mask the package version and move on.

May I ask why would would sync once a day but only run emerge once a week?
To reduce network traffic for one single rsync session?
