there are several possibilities: 1/ do a ktrace on teh spinning process for a couple of seconds and see what syscalls it is doing.
2/ if it's spinning in the kernel, you can drop into ddb and do a tr <pid> to see where it is in the kernel... c to continue.. do this several times to ge a sortof 'profile' of where you see it..
