Thank you for your bug report, could you get a gdb stacktrace? is the
numlock status changing when that happens? seems similar to bug #969359

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon leaks memory / 100+ percent cpu

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  gnome-settings-daemon leaks memory ( adds about 1 MB per minute )

  Observed process use 100% + CPU utilization on one core for more than
  30 minutes.  Memory grew from about 200 MB to 390 MB during this 30
  minute period.

  Process status was reported as "Sleeping/futex_wait_queme_me".
  However, as soon as I typed 'ubuntu-bug' in the terminal it switched
  to Running ~ and then dropped its CPU usage to 60% and gave back 100MB
  of memory.

  Then while typing this comment here....   it went back up to 102% and
  started consuming memory again.

  See attached screenshot
