I also use "epm" (rpm-like interface) and something like epm -q gentoo-sources 
(or rpm -qa | grep sources if you want all things containing sources). Would 
someone tell me what's better with eix ? 

I would assume it's a faster search algorithm than epm but then again, do I 
have to rerun the update db of eix on each database update or it installs in 
the portage modules or something to do it automatically ?
