'top' should show the busy-ish processes if they are long-running.  You 
might be able to strace them to see what they are doing.   Or something 
might be spawning off a bunch of short-lived processes.  Those are 
harder to track down but you can tell if that's the case by a fast 
turnover in process ids.  And you might catch one with a ps and find 
it's parent.
