World and kernel are updating now to -current as of yesterday.
I'll replace GENERIC-MMCCAM with GENERIC for simplicity.

It's still patiently chewing away at www/chromium single-threaded.
My mistake, but best to finish what's started.. Now that how to
use the packages created is known they can be tested.

My Pi3 does report too much swap. But I remain uncertain about
the practical significance of the warning. I gather the issue
is that a certain amount memory is set aside to "index", for
lack of a better word, the data stored in swap. If there's too
much swap relative to index, not all swap can be used. That
seems not much different than running out of swap.

I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to customization.
The less changed the better 8-)

If you replicate the problem I'll be very pleased.
And just slightly relieved.

My suspcions still center around  things I might have 
done to corrupt /usr/local/poudriere. That leaves
me wondering how to proceed after world, kernel and ports
are updated. Delete /usr/local/poudriere (which would toss
the packages created so far), delete only the jail (not
sure if that'll delete existing packages library) or 
something more selective that I don't know about? 

The Pi3B is purely experimental, but I'd rather not throw 
away usable progress given the extreme slowness of that
progress. 

Thank you!
