You do not *have* to, but it couldn't hurt anything (except uptime)...

The practice I am beginning to follow (and what seems to be the most common 
practice) is:

a) cvsup weekly
b) check the -stable list daily for any interesting new merges (AKA MFC's)
c) if I see an new security fixes, or anything that sounds like it would 
affect my system in a positive manner, build world.
