I've used both, and really, from an understanding standpoint, there's really not much difference between Arch and Gentoo.

Gentoo's main advantage are its USE flags, which the packages use to determine which "configure" options to select at compile time. However, installing and updating the system can take hours or days while you wait for everything to compile.

Arch, on the other hand, uses binary packages, which is faster, but lacks the flexibility of USE flags.
