The TileList (more or less) creates an instance of your itemRenderer for each visible tile on te screen. It is not static.
Conceptually, if you have 10,000 rows of data and 50 tiles visible on the screen, you will have 50 instances of the itemRenderer. However, as you scroll, those instances are reused. TileList does not create new instances. From a high level perspective, scrolling is moving data through fixed itemRenderers, not by actually moving renderers off the visible area of the screen.
