The temporal behavior of the magnetization due to the spin-lattice relaxation for bulk and MBE grown epilayer of CdMnTe is compared. The time dependence of the epilayer magnetization changes (dM/dt) is nonmonotonic. After the main part, a second structure appears. It can be explained only by the assumption of energy storage and a delayed additional rise of specimen temperature. The nature of the storage is unknown.
