The pkg takes > considerable less time and space, So why use the port unless you have to. it also means that you compile against the downloaded libs I've had packages fail when compiling succeeds (version clashes being the culprit). I have default optimizations and cpu target set for the compiler, we don't want everything targetted at the 486 instruction set!
