I did a portupgrade -a on my workstation (Compaq Deskpro PIII 800 (+-) w/ 128RAM and it took about 2 days compiling my 377 installed packages. I just had to fix some inconsistencies with pkgdb -F (return-return-return...) first, answer "Accept" when got to compile JDK and everything got smooth. Those inconsistencies came becouse it was FBSD 4.5, upgraded to 4.6 and to 4.6.2 and now to 4.7 and this was the first time I did portupgrade.
