This looks like a perfectly normal mysql truss. Lots of disk I/O, and
it looks like you're got a pretty small record length (20-byte reads?
although the combo of lseek+read and pread on the same datafile is
puzzling. Maybe it's a table with a couple of INT/CHAR columns and a
BLOB column?).
Does a "show processlist" say there's a query running? An interesting
thing to see might be the output of a couple seconds of "iostat 1" and
"vmstat 1", to see how much disk and syscall activity there is.
