Also, it should not nearly be as frequent, it happens maybe every 30-45 minutes on my two relays (one guard, one exit).
Try running Tor natively (you can just move it to a native Linux installation, by preserving the "`keys/ed25519_master_id_secret_key`" and `"keys/secret_id_key`" in your Tor DataDirectory). If you run a bridge, also backup and restore the "`pt_state`" directory into your new DataDirectory.
