They should point to:

  Name:    keyserver-legacy.pgp.com
  Address:  63.251.255.12

since it has roughly 75% of the keys found on the well-synchronized
keyservers and can have them all by loading a _free_ keydump (SKS).

But, of course, they are currently pointing to:

  Name:    keyserver.pgp.com
  Addresses:  63.251.255.32, 63.251.255.6
  Aliases:  europe.keys.pgp.com
