What on earth is causing so many circuit creation requests in such a short timespan?

One possibility, if i recall correctly, is that the Tor that comes with the PirateBrowser bundle is configured to build single hop circuits.

Make sure that these defaults are still set in your relay: AllowSingleHopExits 0 AllowSingleHopCircuits 0

You can also try RefuseUnknownExits 1 but maybe auto is better

And these may help sketch the circuit storms: EntryStatistics 1 ExitPortStatistics 1 ConnDirectionStatistics 1

Which is all to say, i dont know either...
