[ROOT] Cycle number on Trees

Hi,

    I've noticed a behavior on ROOT which I am not sure if it's normal or indicates a problem.
    
    I have a macro that I am using for an analysis which creates a struct (named "myResults"),
fills the struct with some values and at the end writes the struct in a tree.

    Over time the struct grew in size (I wanted to save more and more stuff) and as it grew
I've noticed the following:

    a)    When my tree had a relatively small size the name of the tree written was the one I've chosen "myTree"
    b)    When my tree became bigger in size it saved two trees named "myTree;1" and "myTree;2"
    c)    Now which is even bigger it saves two trees named "myTree;2" and "myTree;3"

    Is there any reason for this behavior? I haven't changed the macro (apart from growing the struct) and also
I don't see any problem with the values saved on the output file.

    Is this a normal behavior of ROOT or it indicates a problem?

    Thanks!

Stelios.
