For example, are there any reads to be expected during executing a query?

You can have a look at Christian's dissertation: http://files.basex.org/publications/Gruen%20[2010],%20Storing%20and%20Querying%20Large%20XML%20Instances.pdf That way you can at least get a picture of the inner organisation of the storage system and may deduce some access patterns? http://docs.basex.org/wiki/Storage_Layout may help as well?
