Hi ports@,

I wonder if setting NO_ARCH=yes brings any significant benefits to how our ports collection works. I'd be grateful if you could shed some light on the importance of setting NO_ARCH whenever possible.

NO_ARCH means that there is no need to build packages for each of the
supported architectures, e.g. for pure interpreted scripts or data files
that do not depend on byte-order and word-size (e.g. many font file
formats).

The result is reduced resources spent on building the packages, network
traffic, disk space on mirrors and on distribution media.
