Quiet spammy log messages in 0.2.6

Sebastian sees

Feb 11 13:29:45.000 [notice] Caching new entry debian-tor for debian-tor
Feb 11 13:29:45.000 [notice] Caching new entry debian-tor for debian-tor
Feb 11 13:29:45.000 [notice] Caching new entry debian-tor for debian-tor

in his log each day. That should happen at most once ever -- and maybe even never? I think Sebastian does not care that we are wrapping getpwnam() so something about a sandbox?

Similarly, the four-times-daily heartbeat has grown to

Feb 11 13:29:53.000 [notice] Heartbeat: Tor's uptime is 9 days 0:00 hours, with 9067 circuits open. I've sent 3900.89 GB and received 3765.17 GB.
Feb 11 13:29:53.000 [notice] Average packaged cell fullness: 98.648%
Feb 11 13:29:53.000 [notice] TLS write overhead: 3%
Feb 11 13:29:53.000 [notice] Circuit handshake stats since last time: 107838/107846 TAP, 80881/80881 NTor.

Yawning, Sebastian, and I think we can get rid of the middle two lines for sure. Maybe the last one too but maybe not quite yet.

What other spammy log lines are people seeing in their client or their relay or their hidden service that would distract or spook them if they were a normal user?

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have admin enable hashed storage. More information
