Personally, I'm in favor of quarterly updates for most of the toolchain unless there's an issue that requires an update sooner than that.

I think we should do GCC updates every 6 months, preferably immediately after a release so that there's plenty of time to find and fix any issues created before the next release.

Right, that used to be the plan (with an optional update around the midpoint, which would result in a ~quarterly schedule). Various issues with updates led us away from that, but let's go back to it.
