The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
blockio is a terminal front-end to whatever the kernel will say about block I/O: on FreeBSD it drives the DTrace io provider and diskinfo(8). It draws one pane per device and one cell per slice of the address space, green for reads, red for writes and amber for TRIM, so a resilver or a scrub shows up as a bright head marching across the map while scattered metadata writes speckle it. Each cell carries an activity layer that fades in milliseconds and a dimmer trail that fades over a minute, showing both what the disk is doing now and where the head has been. It needs root, and on FreeBSD it needs the DTrace modules loaded (kldload dtraceall). A demo mode draws synthetic devices without root.
