You might want to check the Linux Trace Toolkit :
www.info.polymtl.ca/~karym/trace
It will enable you to know exactly what is happening in your system at each moment. You could also try Andrea Arcangelli's kernel profiling patch, for which I don't remember the link, but it shouldn't be hard to find, if you search around a little.
