Hi Rich, I will experiment with a local metadata - that seems like it
might give a worthwhile speedup (its currently about 910Mb so not too big)

You can separate the package directory and distfiles directory from the
ebuild tree.
PORTDIR="/usr/portage"
DISTDIR="/usr/portage-distfiles"
PKGDIR="/usr/portage-packages"
That lets you keep the ebuilds local to your laptop.

/mnt/mfs is a moosefs fuse mount
shared full tree including distfiles, and separate package files for
different hardware groups

When you say you have a remote portage. What do you mean?
The actual portage tree, with all the ebuilds? Or something else?

Hi,
due to space considerations on my laptop I have moved portage onto a
network share (moosfs, mfsmounted) - slower but works fine. However,
being a laptop trying to update/install when out and about is both very
slow and network intensive through a vpn - again, it works but is even
slower
