Back when I switched my main Gentoo workstation from an Ivy Bridge laptop to a 2015 Skylake iMac last year, I cloned the OS and changed the hostname on the old one, but left packages alone. Now I just cleaned up the worldfile on the old machine. Depclean is removing 734 packages.

Honestly I should do most of that on my main machine too. Now that I have a binhost there's no reason to keep stuff I "might use some day" installed. Installing things is fast now.

Replying to @pawel_lasek
I send a WoL wakeup to my Threadripper box every Tuesday and it runs a script that runs emerge in several chroots. The binary packages directory is NFS mounted from my server, and the portage tree used at the time of last build gets pushed there too. It emails me any failures.
