Poudriere itself has its disadvantages. It's heavy and it's unable to produce minimal set of target packages
suitable for "pkg install -U *.txz" command without build-only dependencies.
I'd like to stick with poudriere but could not. Its supposed work-style does not worth it.

Real Work (TM) sometimes presents the need to apply patches, so /usr/src and /usr/obj may become are unavoidable.
1GB-RAM UFS system runs just fine with such trees being stand-alone and does not require extra build system and nor its overhead.
