To confirm - did you manage to fix your problem?

I was about to comment that it looks like queries generated by an ORM or 
connector.  It looks like from your version string you have an MySQL 
enterprise, may I suggest creating a ticket with support?

Regarding your most recent reply:

All the "SHOW FULL COLUMN" queries that we do on the respective tables are very 
small tables. They hardly cross 50 rows. Hence that is the reason whenever these queries 
are made i can see high cpu usage in %user_time. If it were very large tables then the 
cpu would be spending lot of time in waiting for I/O as the databases reads would have to 
do a lot of I/O to read the data from the disks.
If it helps - I believe performance should be similar with large tables, since 
in the case of big table or small table, what is accessed here should just be 
meta data.

Earlier versions of MySQL could rebuild InnoDB statistics on some SHOW commands 
(I’m not sure about SHOW FULL COLUMN), but this is now disabled by default:

Hi Morgan

I think you may be correct. It could be an issue with the connector. I saw the code of the mysql Connector/J and found the getColumns() method building a stringBuffer object which evetually runs this "SHOW FULL COLUMNS" queries. I have to look at my code where ever this method is called and make sure we dont do it. But i have not nailed this down. It is still just an assumption that i have.

Another point is that i have the innodb_stats_on_metadata turned OFF

Thanks for the response.

Thanks
Jatin
