Aug 28 06:19:48.000 [warn] Permissions on directory /var/run/tor are too
permissive.
Aug 28 06:19:48.000 [warn] Before Tor can create a control socket in
"/var/run/tor/control2", the directory "/var/run/tor" needs to exist, and to
be accessible only by the user and group account that is running Tor.  (On
some Unix systems, anybody who can list a socket can connect to it, so Tor is
being careful.)

You really, really do not need to log this once a minute. Not for 615 thousands
log lines and 123 MB worth of logs.
