Comment(by arma):

 A reasonable way to proceed would be to patch your Tor client to react in
 a new way to a USR2 signal, with two actions: a) flush the rendezvous
 descriptor cache:
 {{{
     rend_cache_clean(1000000);
     rend_cache_clean_v2_descs_as_dir(1000000);
 }}}
 and b) expire all open rendezvous circuits:
 {{{
 circuit_expire_all_dirty_circs()
 }}}
 Then you could send your Tor client a USR2 signal shortly before each
 fresh torperf launch.
