Sounds like someone started up a process that has a large heap and/or
stack.

SHOT, from Lund Performance Solutions, may be of help.  Note the "SecPages" column
below...that's how many pages (of 4096 bytes) of secondary storage are
currently being used by each process (for stack, heap, etc.).  Just look for
one with a LARGE value.
