Hello,

I've got a strange issue and was curious if anyone might be able to
shed some light on the issue. About 2-3 times an hour (not
predictable) we see huge bursts of syscall behavior (150,000-200,000
over a 2 second interval). This is on MySQL-5.1.14 on a Solaris 10
AMD64 box.

Using DTrace we've identified that the system call being invoked is
gtime and its being called on an INSERT. The bizarre thing is we don't
have a high number of INSERTs being shown in SHOW PROCESSLIST. I've
included the backtrace around the function that's calling gtime. Any
advise is greatly appreciated.
