These questions have been answered before, many times.

They're equally fast, though 'buildkernel' normally does 'make clean'
and 'make depend' every time.  Use NO_KERNELCLEAN when you can get
away with it (which is most of the time; I have it in make.conf) and
NO_KERNELDEPEND when you know you haven't changed the dependency tree
(i.e. when you haven't changed any #include statements).  All the
usual tricks (KODIR, NO_MODULES, MODULES_OVERRIDE) also work.
