I love gentoo, but I would never recommend it for a stable server platform.
Its true you can get it to a solid state, but you have to be careful with doing the security upgrades, I've had portage bork me into space more than once, and ebuilds are only as good as the developer supporting them.
True, gentoo can be as slimmed down as you want it to be, and overall I love the gentoo kernel.
