Sorry, this was a typo: I meant cache-update, not cache-init.

Thanks for your reply and sorry for the typo. Yes cache-init also took
a couple of hours on my computer, but when it finished i got the command-promt
back. But I am having problems with cache-update. I include the last
paragraphs of my original post with the typo corrected:
for upating the portstree I do:
# cvsup -g -L 2 ports-supfile
# cache-update
# portindex -o /usr/ports/INDEX-5 (I am using 5-stable)
# portsdb -u (I am also using portupgrade)
# portupgrade -arR (or whatever)
The problem I have is now that cache-update seems to hang: When I start
it there is activity for some seconds (as seen in top), but no output
at all, then silence, but the command promt does not come back. From a
different terminal I get this (not wrapped):
~%ps aux | grep cache-update
root 58657 6.3 2.6 8052 6684 p1 I+ 9:50AM 0:08.27
cache-update (perl)
Since cache-update seems to be idle I used to ctrl-C cache-update and
then proceed, so far without getting into trouble. Is this expected
behaviour or am I doing something wrong here?
