periodic_event_dispatch too noisy at loglevel debug

Running git master as a client, once a second I get:

This level of log bloat makes the logs unusable for much else. Is it useful or needed?

I could get behind logging these things when an event actually decided to do something worthwhile. But maybe that "doing a worthwhile thing" should include the log in that case?

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