could you post the -v9 output again please? there would be a log entry if the 
fix is not possible

your former output states
>Total number of contained volumes: 1897
so you need at least 4x1897 + all open file descriptors in the system .. thats 
much to close to 8192 you set

use ulimit -n 100000 and see if this helps.. raise it until the error 
disappears, you probably have to be root to do so
after every set with ulimit, check if with ulimit -n if the setting is in effect

try the raise until solved and post the output as requested above and we'll see 
if the lack of threading in your python is the issue. then we can think of 
other options.
