It seems that the previously mentioned portsnap that is in ports is an old version and can run very slow. This doesn't affect post-5.3 systems, as they come with a newer version pre-installed. Let's hope for an update to the ports version soon!
In the meantime, users of the ports version can boost their portsnap performance by using the magical and undocumented "-x" flag to portsnap:
$ portsnap -x fetch
$ portsnap -x update
