I would think that you could find the working directory of certain processes by doing something like pwdx $(pgrep {process name or a letter in it})

pwdx is part of proc tools i believe. and it isn't installed by default on my system.

read this man page http://www.scit.wlv.ac.uk/cgi-bin/mansec?1+pwdx

Maybe it's disk flush process, I'm not sure. U can install package
fwatch-modules-src, compliar code 2 mod, insert it. Then /dev/fswitch
will show detail of the change on files.
Not sure, just have a try.
