upgrade all packages from ports

hi

I'd like to upgrade all packages on my freebsd 7.0
Is a better way to do portupgrade -faP instead of portupgrade -a ?

The -P option make portupgrade using packages if available.
The -f force the upgrade (reinstall if versions match).
portupgrade(1)

The -f will cause portupgrade to reinstall everything, even what is already up to date.
