I would not have thought so because it's all done in cron jobs thrice per week, giving me reports via email. However, it is true that emerge sync and eix-update were in two separate jobs scheduled an hour apart. It is vaguely conceivable that they got out of step somehow. I've unified them, and hope things go better now. ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD
