Hi, there... One way to do it is to run a portupgrade -n ... to see what would be upgraded, then compile it on the fastest system, export the /usr/ports through nfs and then run a portupgrade -w -W ... using the exported filesystem on the slower system...
Don't forget to sincronize both ports system with cvsup... Just a though... ;-) -- Rafael Mentz Aquino BSDServer Ltda.
