The ulimit of course is not the problem as even with an unlimited setting, it would just grow until it was killed by the OOM killer. The real problem here is that gnome-keyring-daemon has no business growing to even a fraction of the 2GB limit imposed here. 2G for a simple keyring daemon is absurd. Looking at the upstream changelog for versions beyond the 3.2.2 on which the Ubuntu version is based appear to have fixed memory leaks. Given that this leaking 3.2.2-2ubuntu4 version is in the Precise LTS release, upgrading to a newer Ubuntu release is not a solution nor an option -- this LTS release is supposed to be supported beyond 2017. A fix needs to be backported. Having gnome-keyring-daemon leaking for 5 more years is simply unacceptable.
