strace might get you some useful info. you might try filtering on
futex and i noticed epoll_* stuff i hadn't seen before (probably
because most programs aren't event driven).

strace -f -s 1024 -e trace=futex,<other filters> <node> 2>&1 | tee ~/strace

i generally start out and collect everything, when i think i have what
i want, go into vi ':set hlsearch' and start looking around. then
apply filters and go again.
