Read this. It tells you why portsnap is invented. And why cvsup/csup is

It might be worth noting you can set KERNCONF in your make.conf and you
can just do make kernel instead of make buildkernel && make
installkernel. it just runs both for you. There's no difference it is
just a shorter path (not much though).
