It is normal for GFCI breakers and receptacles to feel warm to the touch while under load. They should not feel "hot". GFCI receptacles often protect other receptacles further down the line, so the load does not necessarily need to be plugged into the GFCI receptacle itself. AFCI breakers will also feel warm to the touch.
Again the receptacles should not feel "hot". If they are hot or heat discolored, you should discontinue use and call a licensed electrician.
