I usually do it manually every 1-3 days. Cvsup is quite efficient, so you shouldn't have to worry about overloading the cvsup servers if you do it frequently. On the other hand, cvsupping every 6 hours when you only check the results once a day is overkill. You can also track changes to the ports tree via http://www.freshports.org and cvsup when you see an interesting change there.
