Hm.  Have you tried using Sierra Cache Cleaner (they have one for every OS 
name, just Google yours) in deep clean mode?

Ok. Will  try, but after reading the description in the manual of what does, 
I'm not expecting  it to work.

 My boot-args  is  just

 The system is able to allocate swap files, but for some reason is refusing 
 to use them. Also, in the past I moved away from compressed swap to "just 
 go directly to swap files" because I discovered that my system would 
 consistently wind up with about 10 GB of compressed space, leaving with 
 only 6 GB of working space. I recently reset it to use the normal 
 compressed swap because I'm no longer using the heavy workload that needed 
 more than 6 GB of working space.
 
 My old boot args was
 boot-args   -v -s vm_compressor=1
 and it worked fine until my boot partition ran out of space (At which 
 point it died horrifically; in contrast, although the compressed swap 
 setup won't use the swap file, and runs into trouble much much sooner, it 
 is graceful and the "out of memory panel" actually works.)

No. What's the name of 10.9.5? (And why did they skip from nice, meaningful 
numbers to meaningless names?)
