One limitation I found was if the port has a really long pkg-plist the `pkg repo' command times are going to the roof. For example `pkg repo' a folder with metasploit.txz only takes in a ramdisk and everything else on SSD ~80+ seconds. Extracting the packages takes ~3s. in RAM or on SSD (pkgng issue #322). _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
