I have something like that happening when the system runs out of memory.
It becomes unresponsive to keyboard and mouse, and appears to freeze.
Eventually it revers -- this can take many minutes. Maybe longer. I
usually walk away and come back later if I don't feel like rebooting.
As far as I can tell, the OOM killer struggles to get enough resource to
decide which process to kill. Often if choses firefox-esr, which can
have a lot of processes caled Web Content.

Sometimes I can control-alt-F1 to a text console, which echoes
keystrokes very slowly, and I can killall firefox-esr.

button-click response is then also very slow, but does happen
eventually. Too slow to know what got clicked on.
