Have you looked at the source? :) Just so there's no confusion, the components are created at the same time that your dataTable is -- restoreView phase, I believe. And only one component will be created for each component in your column, no matter how many rows your table contains. The components will be reused for rendering each row, much like an ink-stamp is reused to create multiple images.
