What Causes Chronic Leg Joint Noise?

I have leg popping and had a sleep study last evening. My legs popped all evening and I had wires and contacts on each leg. Was hoping it would show up during the study, but the technician said it wasnt muscle movement that she could tell from, so what would cause this? Nerves that are popping?
