Good idea, use "top" and "lsof" to help you do that.

Also, consider booting into single user mode and see if you get it 
there.  Mount the partitions 1 at a time and see if mount a single 
partitions causes it to happen again, and if so, you need to investigate 
what's special about that one.

HTH,
