An FYI:

A much faster build of main-amd64-default (beefy18) may
be soon possible (and main-*-default more generally).

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=289269

is for: [exp-run] update pkg to 2.3.0

that has turned off the time-expensive provides/requires
functionality that was involved for "pkg add". 142amd64
(gohan06) and 135i386 (gohan05) have completed and
142i386 (package18) and 135amd64 (gohan04) have mostly
completed (each is still processing).

beefy18 builds may well be back to more like 100 Hrs as
it was for pkg 2.0.6 being involved --and less like 420+
hrs and 250+ Hrs for pkg 2.2.2 being involved.

In other words: if pkg 2.3.0 is released, stopping the build
and starting over could well finish much sooner than waiting
for the pkg 2.2.2 based build that now is in progress.

I also expect non-main builds to be faster than they have
been with pkg 2.2.2, but not with as big of a difference.
main-*-default have been the longest builds for 2.2.2
being involved.
