I havn't followed the thread, but this might be of interest:

lsof shows you (on linux and others) the complete and very long LiSt of
Open Files. Just grep for it. The manpage of lsof is very long and every
time I read it I come to believe it will explain how lsof works, but
that's hard to tell (for me).
