There is a couple of non-obvious (at least for me) issues here:

- how memory is being reused and 
- how splitting is done 

in case objects of the same class stored in TClonesArray have different sizes.
Wondering if it is documented - didn't find anything in  TClonesArray section
of 3.02a user guide.
