From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You're describing Wayland running into issues due to overall high system load, and not been given enough scheduler time to accept messages?
edit: This issue? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/issues/159 - didn't find anything else matching the description, and personally have never seen that, both on my low specs notebook or my workstation, which probably counts as higher spec.
correct, this is the same issue, this generally really only happens with a sustained all core workload that will consistently leave you cpu at 100%, since if it's not sustained, the kernel will allot some time to the programs, and the crash wont happen
I guess that explains why I'm not seeing it - my workstation has 64 threads and more than enough memory, and on my notebook I'm scheduling load intensive stuff to not interfere with interactive device usage.
