I don't have the same experience by far:
on a jail i have:
.....
===>>> 68 total installed ports
===>>> 61 have new versions available
portmaster -L --index-only 0.76s user 1.65s system 6% cpu 38.871 total
So it takes 38s on a *very small* installation. My experience is that
all FreeBSD ports tools are incredibly slow, be it portupgrade,
portmaster, even the basic tools like pkg_version. Maybe it would help
to recognize that such observations are perhaps not unrelated to the
original poster comments.
