The ports which do not respond are the ones which take most of the time.You can use the timer object to fix the time for each port.For eg. if a port does not respond within .1 sec it can reasonably be expected to be closed.The exact implementation will depend upon your code.You can also use threads to ping more than one port simultaneously.
