Very much appreciated but how about also providing them in bzip2 
compressed form ?
Especially INDEX, since it's is so large and compresses
so good:

# ls -l /usr/ports/INDEX-8*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  19435698 Jul 25 06:20 /usr/ports/INDEX-8
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   1295390 Jul 23 13:09 /usr/ports/INDEX-8.bz2
