This has been occurring for me now for several years. I have a large amount of passwords stored in chrome. The high CPU usage never really stops completely, as well as anytime chrome tries to retrieve a password, I have to wait about 10 seconds.
The fix is to rename the gnome-keyring-daemon which disables it and chrome then uses internal storage which is no problem. I'm aware I lose all secure storage this way, but it's intolerable otherwise. Background: I probably have close to 1000 passwords stored. I use a passphrase to encrypt them on google's side. Also: When gnome-keyring-daemon is running, any attempt to view stored passwords in the chrome settings screen results in a gray color for the entire dialog with no text visible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-keyring in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1174162 Title: chrome-browser makes gnome-keyring-daemon use 100% cpu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/+bug/1174162/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
