I don't know why but you comment reminded me that I haven't updated in a week ๐Ÿ’€

I use gentoo on a laptop so I have 4 makeopts jobs only.

Ow. I didn't use gentoo until I had good enough hardware that updates wouldn't take 2 days to finish. I used arch or freebsd when I only had a laptop available.

Surprisingly, it only takes a couple of minutes. Except if I have to update firefox or nodejs or clang or llvm or gcc, those take 4 hour minimum and it's worse when they all have to update at the same time. It's spring where I live and I don't want to know what will happen to my laptop when i try to update on summer.

I think for me, it takes around 45 minutes to do a full system update when I run it. I usually run it every 3 days or so.
