Why after initializing a chain blocks starting to get generated?

+1 vote
I have a doubt, after I make the genesis block and initialize the chain i noticed that when I ran the command to see how many blocks are in the chain this number keeps increasing even though I haven't perform any transaction.. so I would like to know why is this happening and if it is the correct behavior?

Yes, blocks continue to be generated automatically for a certain amount of time, even if there are no new transactions. See the mine-empty-rounds blockchain parameter:
