Hi Jonathan, as far as I know, most keyservers which offer dumps update them weekly. However, if these dumps don't take longer than 24 hours (that should hopefully be the case, although David Benfell mentioned that "dumps [are] taking progressively *much* longer" than 8 minutes over time), I see no reason not to create them every day if you want to do so. It might be a waste of resources, but if that's okay because nothing else runs on the server, why not?^^
You just might want to consider switching to a cheaper server with less powerful hardware one day, I think. If you have enough spare resources to create daily dumps, this sounds to me like you're investing too much for a server which is only meant to serve PGP keys. :/ Best regards, Tobias Frei Am 13.07.2014 12:50, schrieb Jonathan Zhang: > [...] Is taking daily dumps reasonable? I'm not running anything else on that machine. Suggestions welcome. [Sorry for the double e-mail, I forgot to send the answer to the list instead of using a simple reply :)]
