Did you my chance also had a look how to speed up ALL-DEPENDS-LIST? It
is used in clean-depends. And on my system it is slow (nearly 6 minutes
for gnome2) too. As portupgrade cleans before and after updating a
port, optimizing this may also be beneficial.

Maybe first trying to construct all dependencies of the installed ports
like in actual-package-depends and then the remaining ones like it is
done currently...

Bye,
Alexander.
