For me, it also is. I'm dependent upon a fast JPEG decompressor for another application I'm part of upstream. I do not particularly care what the default JPEG port is in MacPorts as long as there is a choice for being able to switch to libjpeg-turbo (i.e., a path-based dependency), but I very much prefer libjpeg-turbo for speed and compatibility reasons (again, Linux distributions switched to libjpeg-turbo and a cross-platform application benefits from the same toolchain even on the other platforms.)
