CAM circular pattern G68

I have a question about the Circular Pattern in CAM.
I milled a wheel with it (Pic), which works very well in principle. (Mach3mill)

But I am surprised how the source code is generated.
I would have expected the segment to be generated only once as G-code and then called several times after rotating the coordinate system with G68.
But F360 or the postprocessor generates separate G-code for each segment, which results in very large files.
Does F360 generally work like this, or have I missed a setting?
