Poudriere does as much as a standalone build server would have to do, but it does it in a jail, so the main system isn't affected and can be used to non-build related work in the meantime. It's portmaster/portupgrade that trade off doing less work with less resources in an attempt to produce less rigorously correct result (and often no result at all, or even an additional work needed to restore the build server to a working condition).
