Hi Chris, I found: PID 5458 donde 78.63 K/s write PID 2442 root 22.90 K/s write
Both flashed by very fast, not at same time. PID 2442 seemed most frequent. Did repeated check, using Snapshot application to capture. The iotop program should have a way to capture any write. With Snapshot, you have to be very quick. Hope this helps to figure out the constant disk access.
