Would the initial set-up have to involve immediately checking the UIDs
and certifications of all keys already on the server?

Could new/updated keys be prioritised, and unchanged pre-existing
keys "processed" in small batches over a long period of time?

Could the checking be restricted to new/updated keys only? Or is that
a non-starter because, in order to preserve the web of trust, you then
want to check the integrety of keys that had already signed the key
that was just updated but have not been updated themselves?
