 Using the tor control port i create my tor hidden service like this:

 SETCONF hiddenservicedir=/var/lib/tor-alpha-hidden-
 services/hiddenService01 hiddenserviceport="80 127.0.0.1:8080"


 I then create a connection to that hidden service... and afterwards remove
 it like this:

 SETCONF hiddenservicedir=/var/lib/tor-alpha-hidden-
 services/hiddenService01


 Even after this hidden service is removed from the tor process additional
 connection attempts to that same onion result in these log messages:

 Nov 21 04:11:47.000 [info] connection_exit_begin_conn(): begin is for
 rendezvous. configuring stream.
 Nov 21 04:11:47.000 [warn] Couldn't find any service associated with pk
 e5p437qubbddgwa6 on rendezvous circuit 4216977301; closing.
 Nov 21 04:11:47.000 [info] connection_exit_begin_conn(): Didn't find
 rendezvous service (port 80)

 I also noticed that sending the tor process a sig HUP stopped this
 behavior fairly soon... but I was still able to produce these log messages
 for a little while.
