I think I know that it could be! 
I think it's the vibration handler!

After inputting the passcode in the greeter, unity8 prints the following lines 
*after* the 2 secs delay:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes 
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security 
policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection 
was broken.

And as noted in the bug description, one of the sympthoms was that vibration 
stopped working.

I think what happened is that the vibrator handler crashed, and on every
tap that requires vibration the system is waiting some timeout for the
vibrator to reply to the DBus call before timing out.

Those calls are probably synchronous, hence blocking the UI until a
reply is received (do we really have to block the UI to vibrate?). But
since the other end is probably dead, the phone stalls until the NoReply
answer is received, and only then the UI thread gets back in control
again.

Title:
  [Krillin] Taps are delayed by 1-2seconds, although gestures are not.
  Keyboard is thus unusable
