Should be. Gentoo eliminates a lot of code bloat by compiling everything on-the-fly. The only disadvantages of this method is that you need a constant broadband connection to download all the files, and the compilation process takes many hours, depending on your processor speed and available RAM. (My 1.86 Ghz Intel Core Duo took about 8 hours or so to compile a Genkernel kernel configuration, although custom configurations might be faster.)
