Last Friday I investigated and while adjusting my logging to capture the
HTTP verb/method, accidentally logged the entire request for a duration
of 1 minute 33 seconds. In that time, of the 324 requests logged, two
two most frequent were:
142 MongoDB 3.4 Release Signing Key <address@hidden>
10 MongoDB 3.2 Release Signing Key <address@hidden>
That's almost half the traffic for keys related to one project.
This tied into an eyeball-visible (might be illusion, I don't have
insight analysis tools set up) swing of presented hostnames towards
`keys.gnupg.net` (the common CNAME) instead of the normal pool name.
I walked away from computers for the weekend, for various reasons, but
realizing how much I was spending out of my own pocket now just to
support some company doing stupid things with key distribution factored
into it. I think there's still some value to running a keyserver so I'm
not ready to give up yet, but I came this --->.<--- close on Friday.
