I should also install portupgrade if I were you, it make managing ports a lot easier. It also has the -P and -PP options (and corresponding per port settings in /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf) which are useful for combining ports and packages. For example a full KDE upgrade from ports takes me 3 days, but by allowing portupgrade to install some of the less-important kde components from fully up-to-date packages, I cut that down to one day.
