 Crossed my mind the "network block device" (iSCSI?) could be corrupting
 MMAP'ed cached-* or diff-cache files somehow.  I distrust network storage
 for critical applications and have not seen a network solution half as
 reliable a set of locally attached drives in RAID1/5/6.  I'd take a single
 bare SSD over network storage.

 If not already configured, try adding

 {{{
 DisableAllSwap 1
 }}}

 to `torrc`, which should eliminate paging and lower the probabality of the
 aforesaid.  Verify it's working by issuing

 {{{
 cat /proc/<tor_pid>/status
 }}}

 and checking that `VmLck` is the same as `VmSize` less 4 or something like
 that.
