In DNSSEC, ECDSA P-256 exceeds the deployment of RSA, and with RSA
domains, the KSKs are most commonly 2048 bits, with RSA-1024 KSKs on
only ~0.2% of signed domains.  Yes, migration to PQC will take time.

Today's numbers:

 - Algorithm frequencies:

        KSK Alg                Domain count
        13 (ECDSA P-256)    |  14891802
        8  (RSA SHA2-256)   |  10202696
        15 (Ed25519)        |  576447
        10 (RSA SHA2-512)   |  179838
        14 (ECDSA P-384)    |  166224
        7  (RSA SHA1 NSEC3) |  73316
        5  (RSA SHA1)       |  11194

    https://stats.dnssec-tools.org/#/?dnssec_param_tab=3D2

        Bits     Domain Count

        4096  |  405294

        512   |  388
        2024  |  148
        2560  |  139

For ZSKs (that are much easier to rotate, if the operator bothers)
RSA-1024 is dominant at ~90%.
