Hardly ever. Of course, I do have a light touch. But I found my string breakage, when I did have it, was usually due to sharp edges on tuners. I used to break strings on the Yamaha. A luthier fixed it and it hasn't broken a string since.
fwiw, I play mostly John Pearse 80/20 lights on acoustics, and GHS Nickel Rockers on electrics.
