Ubuntu 18.04.4 with kernel 5.3.0-28-generic up to date @ 6/2/2020
Xscreensaver makes the system rise in high cpu load and high fan blowing
it always worked fine for years till recently this start to occur
tested both on gnome3 and openbox
tested a few screensavers, glmatrix, phosphor
after Xscreensaver launches getting alot of errors after a few minutes like these:
[ 1599.969906] mce: CPU1: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 40)
[ 1599.969907] mce: CPU3: Core temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 40)
[ 1599.969909] mce: CPU3: Package temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 224)
to rule out its hardware related, i tested booting from grub with break=init
where the cpu stays 26c and no fans rise
i also tested Xscreensaver on 20.04 where this does not happen
disabling Xscreensaver keeps the system normal cpu & fan again
