Yeah, sounds like an out of control browser tab.
Once I finally decided that I had no choice but to reboot, I started
shutting things down. At the time I had about 20 tabs open in Chromium
and another ten in Firefox. I suspected them the same as you, so they
were the first things I shut down, and after each one was down I tried
typing somewhere, and there was no change to the problem. That's not
firm proof, 'cause sometimes things keep running when they should be
dead.
ps auxwww | egrep -i 'firefox|chrom'
That will usually show any hung browser processes. It's been a long
time since I've worked in a Linux GUI, but on my Macs Chrome runs a
bunch of helper processes that occasionally run amok.
