Sounds like a good RFE to me.

I remember using it once before and was
overwhelmed with mass amounts of output.

If there are any syscalls in the looping thread, they're presumably
dominate the output. If there aren't, you could try truss with -u::
to list library calls in the loop, if it's making any.
