[gentoo-user] how do you keep up with system administration?

[Denis <denis.che@gmail.com>]

I'm curious to know your approach to keeping your Gentoo box current
without it becoming a full-time job.  I'm not talking about
maintaining servers - just your "daily driver", so to say.

How often do you sync with the current portage tree and compare it
your versions in "world"?  Should one do this once a week?  Once in
two weeks?

How often to you update major components, like Xorg, kernel, and
system tool chain?  As soon as new things become available, or, say,
once a month or so?

The reason I ask is because I often don't have a lot of time to devote
to system administration on a regular basis but do want to keep my box
updated as much as possible.  How do some of you non-developers
balance system administration with your "day job"?
