Normally "make clean" in the top-level /usr/ports directory cleans all dependant ports for every port, so it ends up repeating the make clean for some ports lots of times. Since you know that you are going to be cleaning every port anyway, you can speed things up quite a bit by setting the "NOCLEANDEPENDS" make variable, e.g: cd /usr/ports make NOCLEANDEPENDS=1 clean See "man 7 ports" for other useful ports-related settings.
