My experience with packages on FreeBSD has been dismal at best, but on OpenBSD it is stellar. I do really like the ports way of doing things in FBSD. I can see a large difference in performance on my Apache servers and more so on my MySQL servers. IMHO, on FBSD use ports, and on OpenBSD use packages. Of course, YMMV.
