Port information for all ports is already on your computer; that's what you're updating every time you run "sudo port sync" or "sudo port selfupdate". Computing dependencies would however involve opening the portfile and portgroup files for each port that is a dependency of the port you're installing that's not already installed. If you have not yet installed (m)any ports, and the port you've requested has a lot of dependencies, this could be a lot of files and take some minutes. According to "port rdeps auto-multiple-choice", there are 300 ports to be considered. So you could possibly improve the situation by installing some of the dependencies individually first. Look at the output of "port deps auto-multiple-choice" and "sudo port install" some of those ports by themselves. Then later, return to trying to install auto-multiple-choice itself.

Now that I've found the main culprit, my http proxy app, the simplest way is still to close this app. And report the problem to the app developer. Thanks for helping to direct my brain to the right direction :-)
