Oh, BTW https://bitbucket.org/skskeyserver/sks-keyserver/wiki/KeydumpSources

I tried the http://keyserver.borgnet.us/dump/ dump a couple weeks ago for one
of my dev boxes. It's > 150k keys out-of-sync. (Current sks-keyservers.net
status page says 157.445) Good idea to avoid this one.

I'd wait until the dump at ftp://ftp.prato.linux.it/pub/keyring/dump-latest/
finishes Wednesday morning, load that, and be as close as possible to caught-up.
