I landed here because of a similar issue. Maybe the same as Francois Rigaut describes.

It happens when doing ssh. I have ssh-agent running, which should supply the key to ssh. Some times setting up an ssh connection hangs. And the only solution to make ssh work again is to remove the environement variables that tell ssh to ask an agent for the keys.

Now this happened again, and I had a look at top and noticed gnome-keyring-daemon at 100%.

Next time I reboot I will have a look on gnome-keyring to see if it goes to 100% just in interaction with ssh/ssh-agent.

Is there any mean I can gather information useful to you to locate the problem?
