Under Arch, I was stalling system upgrades for around 1 and 1/2 weeks, otherwise had a lot of library issues. This also ensure that I can install software, programs and dev libs pretty easily.
Under gentoo, I update my package DB every 2 or 3 weeks, then merge changes. Usually, I do this on monday. Working from sources, with a fixed package DB, makes things really stable.
Right now, my main workstation runs OpenSuse. I upgrade every 2 weeks.
Servers are mainly running OpenBSD and stable software. Around 2/3 weeks.
I also follow Sec Lists and Software Update feeds. If something urgent shows up I do upgrades and merges in a 12h period.
