A recent keydump of the SKS dataset is a little over 15GB in size. To 
run a copy of Hockeypuck with the full dataset loaded takes around 40GB, 
so you should budget 60GB free disk space to get up and running safely - 
but remember that disk usage will only increase over time so this is a 
minimum, not a recommendation. You can delete the dump afterwards to 
reclaim some space if you are resource constricted.

sks-keyserver can be run on a smaller disk (by using fastbuild and using 
the dump directly instead of importing it), however I would not 
recommend it.
