[clue-tech] Tracking disk i/o by process?

I'm troubleshooting a server that is suffering from some annoying i/o  
write storms and trying to track down which processes are to blame.

Does anyone know of a way to track the number of read/writes and  
summarize them by pid?  dstat shows when it's happening, but doesn't  
show us *which* processes are responsible. which is not very helpful.
