That's because of the "--newuse" and "--update". If you want
to recompile everything, do "emerge --emptytree --deep world"

without a revision change.

And if you don#t want new packages, then --update was wrong in
the first place.

Generally speaking, yes, you can. Your system will be slower,
but that's of course to be expected, as it is busy.
