Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When under heavy CPU load, my keys can get "stuck" on a key and repeats indefinitely until I'm forced to restart the computer. It's not a hardware problem as I dual boot Windows and it never happens there. Even if I disable "Repeat Keys" in System->Preferences->Keyboard, it still happens. 
This has happened for me since 10.04. There were similar reports for previous versions of Ubuntu, but it seems that the bug has re-emerged.
