Try running strace on one of those busy slaves to see what
sort of system calls it is making.

Also, you might be able to ascertain what the errant process
is doing by running the debugger on the errant processes
(can the perl debugger be pointed to a particular process?),
by looking at the various artifacts under /proc/<pid>.
Perhaps others here can offer more extensive debugging
tips.
