Hi Stefan,
I am convinced that you have used h2root from version 2.00/12.
By default, Root autosaves the Tree header every 100 Mbytes.
In your case, you see the second cycle of the Autosave after 200 Mbytes.
Version 2.00/12 had a problem when more than one cycle of an object was
written to a file. This was fixed in 2.00/13. See release notes.
Please convert your file with h2root from version 2.00/13
and let me know.
