If you are asking about OpenBSD, study Section 5.1 of the official FAQ:

http://openbsd.org/faq/faq5.html#Flavors

As for whether ports should be compiled, or simply installed, the project advocated simple installation unless there are specific reasons for compilation. More information the packages/ports system can be found in Section 15 of the FAQ:
