I have exactly the same problem but I do it anwyat - there is not much
we can do about it.  The default timeout for such lookups are 2 seconds.
You can lower this to one second using

  connect-quick-timeout 1

in dirmngr.conf.  A bit more annoying keyserver DNS entries with service
records, which will all be tried in turn until one is found.  That can
multiply the timeout.


Salam-Shalom,
