periodically generated?

Instant replay:
The answer is "it depends on your specific case".
It can be "yes" or "no" or "maybe" or "rather yes", or ... 
depending on the specific case, whose description is needed to get more relevant answer [1].

> Does this mean that ... must be ...?

No, that something is present in examples does not necessarily imply that it must be like that at all circumstances.
It depends on your specific case :-)

Cheers
