Entries in the slow log have a timestamp. You can read the file directly, but it's much easier to use a tool like maatkit for parsing the results of the log.

I'm not sure which is causing which but during this time the server is unresponsive. I would like to determine if there is a poorly optimized query causing this. I'm logging slow queries but is there a way to see when the slow queries take place also? I'd like to know what queries are being processed during this window of poor response time, usually around noon local time.
