Not sure. Can you try querying the peers system table on each of your nodes
(with cqlsh: SELECT * FROM system.peers) and see if the host4 is still
mentioned somewhere?

No. If the host doesn't exists, the driver might try to reconnect to it at
times, but since it won't be able to, it won't try to use it for reads and
writes. That does mean you might have a reconnection task running with some
regularity, but 1) it's not on the write/read path of queries and 2)
provided you've left the default reconnection policy, this will happen once
every 10 minutes and will be pretty cheap so that it will consume an
completely negligible amount of ressources. That doesn't mean I'm not
interested tracking down why that happens in the first place though.
