I only use applications which I really need, and I stick to CLI/base ones.

$ portmaster -l | grep installed 
===>>> 169 total installed ports

I do not need to clean periodically, although obviously few times 
I deleted leftover dotfiles from removed apps. 

I don't have GTK+ and I'm waiting for new Opera, to get rid of Qt.
