Ah ...
Did you try to stop mysql (if possible given your SLA, of course )?
Here's the weird thing. I've stopped just about everything. The one thing I cannot stop is FTP and NFS. Samba, syslog, mysql, postfix, cron have all been shut down temporarily with no effect.
NFS is not exporting the disk in question. FTP has several log files open. The culprit might be /var/log/wtmp as the other logs are relatively idle (only when users are actually transferring, which is relatively rate).
I rotated the wtmp file. The new one is less than 5k in size, so I think I can eliminate it. Watching "du -sh /var/log/proftpd" leads me to conclude that it is also not changing in size.
Any known subversive software that writes to disk a lot?

ftpscrub(8) System Manager's Manual ftpscrub(8)NAME
ftpscrub - scrub the proftpd scoreboard file of stale entries
SYNOPSIS
ftpscrub
DESCRIPTION
The ftpscrub command provides a way to scrub the scoreboard file on demand, at times which suit the site best. This should be run periodi-
cally on sites which run proftpd in inetd mode.
OPTIONS -h,--help Display a short usage description, including all available options.
-f,--file scoreboard-file
Specify the full path to proftpd's run-time scoreboard file (configured via the ScoreboardFile directive in proftpd.conf ). If
proftpd's default directory has been changed via this directive, ftpscrub must either be recompiled, or this option must be
used in order to find proftpd's scoreboard.
-v,--verbose
Reports additional information while scrubbing the scoreboard.
FILES
/usr/sbin/ftpscrub
/var/run/proftpd.scoreboard
