You mean when installing software?

It keeps your authentication cached (I think the default is 15 minutes) - if you continuously do administrative tasks in that 15 minutes it won't ask anymore.

If, however, your installing something and it takes more than 15 minutes it'll ask again. That's a security feature.

There is a way to stop it altogether... but I strongly suggest against it.
