You have to use CVSup to update the source FreeBSD itself, but why use it for ports? Portsnap uses even less bandwidth, doesn't require modification of any config files and is part of the default install. You don't have to worry about remembering to install CVSup during install or using sysinstall to get it after the fact. Once your ports tree is up to date, you can grab CVSup and whatever else you need from there.
Why CVSup? Use Portsnap
