Portage problem. Will be better next release I hear. Search the forums and
search the newsgroup for portage, metadata, cache for more info. Most
often, hangs at 50-51% while redoing KDE. Defrag or moving /usr/portage to
its own partition has been known to help. Read some of the posts.

My experience has been that defraging /usr/portage brought enormous
speed up, but just once or twice. Soon after the darn thing slowed down
again. Looking forward to the next portage version. :-)
