[wplug] periodic writing to disk

Hi all-

My gkrellm is telling me that some process is writing to the
hard disk every 5-10 seconds. I can't figure out what it is,
and that makes me wonder. Is there a way to figure out what
process is responsible?

I've looked at top, ps aux, and done 'tail -f' on
/var/log/everything.log, but haven't found any culprits yet.

Running Archlinux x86_64.

Thanks for your suggestions-

SFK
