The problem is definitely more widespread than Amazon. I am seeing the same issues on my physical server located in Sydney, Australia. My server has plenty of memory and disk space, so that is not an issue (/var/lib/sks/DB is currently 118GB), but one processor core continually goes in and out of being 100% utilised by the single-threaded "sks db" process. I can confirm that I have not changed any major OS component nor the SKS daemon itself--I'm running an up-to-date Debian installation, uptime is currently 48 days, and the problems appeared the same time everyone else's did, just a couple of weeks ago. Happy to provide log files if anyone is debugging; I myself have not spent much time on this, nor looked through the SKS source code. By the way, I tried Phil Pennock's suggestion of removing peers that were significantly behind mine in terms of number of keys, but that made no difference to the situation.
