ok, comparing this with your first duplicity.txt output (line 325) shows that 
duplicity only lists ~9900 files while there are ~74000 online.

this partial "blindness" let's it find only some backups, seemingly the oldest 
ones.

this reminds me of
 https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/241395
where a paramiko bug shortened the list of files on the backend.

another possibility would be a bug within python, i seem to loosely remember 
that this was the case at one time in past on MacOS though.


your leads from here (please report your progress)
1. update to latest swift-client. doublecheck that the python based swift cmd 
line client does indeed list _all_ files.
2. update python to the latest stable
3. research problems with python, swift and truncated file listings
