If I comment out these lines calling javavm is just a bit slower than
calling java directly. (0.9 secs vs. 1.0 secs.) I understand that this
removes a lot functionality from the script, but it indicates where the
performance goes.
# Determine location of bsd.port.mk if it exists
#PORTSDIR=
#if [ -r /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk ]; then
# PORTSDIR=`"${MAKE}" -f /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk -V PORTSDIR
2>/dev/null`
#fi
#
#BSD_PORT_MK=
#if [ ! -z "${PORTSDIR}" -a -r "${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.port.mk" ]; then
# BSD_PORT_MK="${PORTSDIR}/Mk/bsd.port.mk"
#fi
I don't know if I reported what my system is. It is a bit slower than
yours. :-)
