Well, top, iotop, turn off nepomuk, turn off individual akonadi agents.

Akonadi (the server) itself rarely cause alone hard disk activity. There 
must be something behind it, and as the Akonadi system is multi-process, 
with such trials one could probably find the real cause.
This is important to find, as otherwise the problem cannot be fixed at all.
