I've also noticed that portupgrade takes forever to update my ports when
using the X.org modular ports tree. I (mostly) fixed it by switching to
portmanager, which seems to work *a lot* faster than portupgrade.
Registering the port still takes a good bit of time, but I found that
the rest of the process was expedited with the switch.
