My quick test involving running pkg_version on a system with 92 installed ports, which is very make-intensive operation if ports have origin recorded, as pkg_version(1) runs `make -V' for each port, shown that statically-compiled make is about 15% faster than dynamically-compiled. Sound like a reasonable speed gain for 100k binary size increase.
