Also, I would guess that some people who run multiple FreeBSD systems,
use some sort of local propagation of either the entire ports tree, or
locally compiled packages.

I work as a sysadmin at the students computer lab at the mathematics
department at the Norwegian university of science and technology, and we
take this approach. Not that the maths department is a large one, but we
have fifty-some workstations and a couple of servers running FreeBSD.
Only one or two of which would show up in the portsnap stats.
