Has everything you need to know...
Yes, definitely follow the guide.
During the emege -e world, if you use MAKEOPTS=-jN, where N>1, you may
notice some things fail to build (at least I did). Doing a
"MAKEOPTS=-j1 emerge -e --resume world" is the way around most
problems.
Also, if you use KDE, you may want to checkout the kdehiddenvisibility
flag before commencing the emerge -e world. Setting it should improve
KDE startup times. I can't say I noticed a dramatic speedup, but my
laptop is definitely at the high-end of the performance range...
