One big difference is you are using a boat load of use flags, I'm using very few. I'd start with why you have all those flags and what they are doing. Also, my laptop is stable so very few ~amd64 packages - only nvidia-drivers so far. emerge -pve @system tells me 191 packages so the list is large. Other systems that don't use the kde profile seem to pull in (from memory) about 130 packages. - Mark
