When maintaining a Gentoo system, little and often usually take less time
in the ling run. I get emailed the results of eix-test-obsolete,
revdep-rebuild -p  and a couple of other checks from each computer each
week. Most weeks I just scan the mails and move on as nothing is
reported. Occasionally I remove a line or two from /etc/portage/*, which
is far less work than trying to decipher the mess after leaving it for
several months.
