Here's the link to the minimal working example on Gist: https://gist.github.com/boblukas/603c16f4aceca0d7a5b46fa8150fae29 (The cube.off is taken from CGAL repo: https://github.com/CGAL/cgal/blob/master/Data/data/meshes/cube.off )

The output shows 52 cells, which are way too many for my application. 

Thanks a lot for your time,

Bob

The number of input triangles does no affect the number of output cells.

Note that a simple working example that we can compile and run on
gist.github.com would most probably understand your problem.
Right now I can only guess that the number of output cells is the one
needed to preserve the topological criteria.

Best,

Sebastien.
