 Since qgis3 port verions 3.0 I noticed that it is very unresponsive. I
 even created the ticket in the past: #56169 However, official binaries
 works fast. Today I found the time to make some experiments and try to
 compile qgis3 port with qt59. Now I can confirm that this is a culprint
 for slowing down of qgis3 port. Additionaly qt59 fixes other problem with
 no option to resize modal windows: #56911. Naturally it also introduce
 some new bugs like huge mouse cursors (for addint new features and etc.).

 For now running qgis3 port with qt59 is only workaround to make it usable
 for serious work. Therefore It would be nice to have convienient option to
 +qt59 variant. Please add this variant to the port.

 To Install qgis3 port with qt59 I had to manually edited two ports
 definition:
 1. Uninstall all ports and macports files.
 2. To qgis3 port I added these lines:
 changeset:312eec49096c92819071c3e87bea0ef9a562eed8/macports-ports
 3. I also had to Install older version of py-pyqt5 port. I installed 5.9.2
 version. The recent version just install qt5 port which makes conflict
 with qt59.
