This is more than just a performance thing.

Using the regex filter picks up unwanted instances from other hosts if the other hostnames contain the wanted hostname. So self.host = 'host1' got instances for host1, host10, host100 (and maybe even ghost1).

This lead to some very confusing (negative) free ram totals and scheduling failure.
