    What are we doing wrong that is causing it to take such a long
    time?  I've noticed when I've tried to do it that sometimes the bulk
    build gets stuck on ftp.  It can come to a complete halt and stay that
    way for hours on end :-(
  
When I did experimental bulk builds, I did observe problems with 
stalling FTP, so I added the following line to /usr/pkg/etc/mk.conf 
(this is actually part of the bootstrap kit):
FETCH_BEFORE_ARGS=-q 60
