Sure...

And if you choose to not rebuild things you end up putting a whole lot
of packages into @preserved-rebuild, which shows up *every* time
emerge completes. Well, I basically get over this by simply ignoring
them, but the length of @preserved-rebuild output usually forces me
into emerging it every 2 weeks or so.

And just consider how much CPU cycles are lost in frequent qtwebkit,
webkit-gtk and chromium rebuilds...
