Flow using way too many tasks

Flow using way too many tasks

I built a flow that is using way too many tasks for what it is doing. I reached out to support a week ago but never heard back so hoping the community can help. Does a filter count as a task? I am seeing tons of records filtered with < 1 Sec Time Taken listed for each one. I am still really just testing this and there are only ~30 people that meet the criteria for entry in our CRM however we used over 4,000 tasks in one day. I put in place a filter to prevent people from re-entering the flow but something still doesn't seem right. Anyone have any ideas?
