A little Google research revealed this approach that solved things for me:

    top -b -n 1 | awk '{if (NR <=7) print; else if ($8 == "D") {print; count++} } END {print "Total status D: "count}'

    top - 11:53:48 up 5 days, 18:47,  1 user,  load average: 3.00, 3.00, 3.00
Tasks: 132 total,   1 running, 131 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
Cpu(s):  0.2%us, 12.3%sy,  3.8%ni, 83.3%id,  0.2%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st
Mem:   2075620k total,  1773432k used,   302188k free,   395648k buffers
Swap:  2650684k total,      716k used,  2649968k free,  1165208k cached

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 8548 root      20   0  2296  684  576 D    0  0.0   0:00.00 find

tempe:~# killall -9 find

    After that, the load average immediately began dropping back to normal.
