Condolences on this miserable problem.

I would be thinking about lsof -n before and during the thrashing.  For 
example

# lsof -n >temp 
# (perform thrashing)
# lsof -n >temp1 && diff temp temp1 | grep -v lsof

I just tried it here with just a pause and got no changes in open files, so 
there is some hope you might see interesting and relevant changes...
