Bug Description
Randomly, system freezes with high CPU usage (cooling fan goes high when the problem happens) since update to Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS.
Same problem with X11 and Wayland.
Display freezes and keyboard or mouse inputs won't change anything.
Caps and num lock won't react either.
Ctrl+alt+anything doesn't solve the issue.
Only possibility is then to force reboot using power button.
After reboot, I could find in logs :
gnome-shell
libinput error: client bug: timer event6 debounce short: scheduled expiry is in the past (-15ms), your system is too slow
Problem happens in any situation, for example while videoconferencing with any software, or using LibreOffice Writer, sometimes with Firefox.
The only common fact seems to be that Firefox is always opened.

Would you say the problem occurs when entering/leaving fullscreen in Firefox? Sounds like bug 1749779.
