I'm seeing a ton of these messages in my logs all the time. How can I clear them up?

I think this URL speaks to your issue: https://kb.sitecore.net/articles/404548

Among the other suggestions there, try to reload the perf counters:

  1. Start an administrator command prompt.
  2. Run unlodctr .NETFramework.
  3. Run lodctr %WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\\CORPerfMonSymbols.ini where is the directory of the .NET Framework version which contains the CORPerfMonSymbols.ini file. It should be either v4.0.xxx or v2.0.xxx if 4.0 is not installed.
  4. Restart IIS.

There is a very good article on https://community.sitecore.net/developers/f/8/t/531 which deals with the same issue. I actually followed it up last year and it solved the issue that you are having as well.

I would suggest setting: Counters.Enabled to false with a patch file and this will stop Sitecore logging out most of these counters.

You should read up on what these are for though before you do this: https://kb.sitecore.net/articles/404548
