If most of the time really is spent reading from the file, then it may not be worth parallelising your code. All your data is on the same disk and you can read only one sector of the disk at a time. If you can read all your data first in one process, but then parallelise the graph-drawing elements, then that might take good advantage of multi-cores and multi-processors.
