I've timed it ones :

if I cvsup every day it takes 90 seconds max to update the source tree. 
if I do it ones a week it takes 15 minutes. so calulating 
90*7=630 seconds =10min 30 sec
15 minutes is longer then 10 minutes. So I don't overload the server
anyway it is one box that cvsup's the source for the whole network..
however if I see that the source has modified substantially during one day
I run makeworld and install all the boxes manually again.
Now for the ports I only cvsup them ones every 21 days becuase the ones I
use don't change that much.
