Which of the two happens?
Right, the man page is a ambigious in use of the term "import". It should say that "after the key has been received by gpg, is is compacted ..., and if no error is encountred written to the keyring". > I think everyone would prefer that import-clean would do all the > checking and cleaning before importing certificates to the local > keyring. The same thing with import-minimal. It does this. However for 150k signatures it even takes quite some time to check whether the key does not exist locally so that the signature won't be imported.
