CPU time has never been an issue for me, really. I am intrigued by Gentoo on a SteamDeck - how well does that work? I imagine a very tight thermal headroom gets in a way every now and then.

Gentoo on Steam Deck works great. The kernel must have all the drivers now. For audio it must use Pulseaudio/Pipewire for the speakers to work. Compiling Firefox just takes about two hours? I didn't time it. If it's not compiling then it has no noticeable heat pumping out.
