You can rconsole the MP (and/or LP's) and run the "debug packet capture" 
command.  This will show you packets hitting the CPU on the module.  The 
default output is 25 packets.  Running a "show cpu lp" will also show 
CPU usage on the individual LP's which may make it easier to single out 
the source of the CPU increase.
