equery belong revdep-rebuild
1st run 45 seconds
2nd run 12 seconds
machine: 1.5GHz Pentium M with 0.5G of memory
That's inconveniently slow. I suggest to rewrite the tool responsible for the
delay to utilize CPU efficiently. It's just an operation of a search in a list,
which is not so big.

On my Amd64 time of this operation was about 5s.
The good idea will be re-emerge gentoolkit and pade revdep-rebuild that could help.
