My daily cvsup of src-all and ports takes about 6 minutes. If I run it again, immediately, so it doesn't actually update anything, it takes 5. This is over a 33.6 modem, usually connectinga t a bit less. Updating the CVS repository from a -RELEASE cd's copy tends to take less than an hour. CVSup will do the right thing on aborted transfers, so don't worry about that.
