Are re-renders on scroll an expected behavior?

[florian-deroo]

Hi,

I'm using FlashList and I've noticed that the component itself re-renders every time I scroll. I'm trying to determine if this is the expected behavior for the library (e.g., due to view recycling) or if I might have an issue in my implementation.

I've used a whyDidYouUpdate tool and it doesn't show any prop changes that would trigger these re-renders. Additionally, as you can see in the attached profiler screenshot, none of the parent or child components around FlashList are re-rendering; the re-renders are isolated to the FlashList component itself.

Could you please clarify if this is the intended behavior?

Thanks for your help!
