Or, is the system failing to retrieve the packages and failing over to

I always tee the output of portupgrade to a file so, if it dies in the
middle, it's pretty easy to pick up where it left off and not re-build
everything twice.

Yes, also I am pretty sure that if you rerun portupgrade -faP a second time it will reuse the cached packages it downloaded last time, if they are not out of date.

This may be true if you have created the /usr/ports/packages folder (which doesn't exist by default) Anyway, if the packages are not found, they will be built from sources. In this case adding -p will save the packages for the next run (so portupgrade -faPp).
