Evidently chrome uses gnome-keyring, and beats the crap out of it while
syncing password stores with the cloud.

Title:
  gnome-keyring chews CPU and disk for 40 seconds on chrome startup

Status in gnome-keyring package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  To reproduce:
  0) start top
  1) start chrome
  2) watch disk light flash; watch cpu activity for gnome-keyring peg; notice gnome-keyring in D state; notice chrome and whole machine responding poorly 
  3) 40 seconds later, system returns to normal, and chrome beings responding quickly as expected.

  This is ironic and annoying, since I never use gnome's keyring.  Ever.
