Re: [Sks-devel] The pool is shrinking

I'd love to keep my server in the pool consistently, but until
Issue #61 is resolved[1], my server will spike to 100% CPU for
several minutes and become unresponsive as it tries to deal with
the huge troll keys. Running a server in the pool is no longer
a hobby project, and you have to constantly be restarting or
reconfiguring your server to keep it running.

Overall, I think the main reason why the pool has shrunk so much
is because of this issue.
