Hobbit just performs a standard DNS lookup, using the DNS servers listed
in your /etc/resolv.conf (or whatever file is used on your system - it's
somewhat OS dependant). Hobbit doesn't cache DNS responses.

It is a DNS server somewhere that is caching the old IP. Try doing a 
"nslookup server1.example.com" on the Hobbit server.
