Jtree getTreeCellRendererComponent execute several times

Question

i've got a problem with a custom TreeCellRenderer. the overridable method getTreeCellRendererComponent is executed about 4 time when i click on a node. Does anybody have an idea about this? Thanks by advance.

my code:

    @Override
public Component getTreeCellRendererComponent(JTree tree, Object p_value,
        boolean selected, boolean expanded, boolean leaf, int row,
        boolean hasFocus) {
    super.getTreeCellRendererComponent(tree, p_value, selected, expanded,
            leaf, row, hasFocus);
    if (row != -1) {
        DefaultMutableTreeNode aNode = (DefaultMutableTreeNode) p_value;
        TreePath treePath;

        treePath = tree.getPathForRow(row);
        if (treePath == null) {
            return this;
        }
        // int pathCount = treePath.getPathCount();
        JLabel label = (JLabel) this;
        if (aNode.getUserObject() instanceof MlCompteMail) {
            traiteNomCompte((MlCompteMail) aNode.getUserObject(), label);
            // JTreeFactory treeFact = new JTreeFactory();
            // treeFact.refreshNode(treePath);

            return this;
        } else if (aNode.getUserObject() instanceof MlDossier) {
            traiteNomDossier((MlDossier) aNode.getUserObject(), label, leaf);
            // JTreeFactory treeFact = new JTreeFactory();
            // treeFact.refreshNode(treePath);
            return this;
        }
    }

    return this;
}

private void traiteNomDossier(MlDossier p_dossier, JLabel label,
        boolean p_leaf) {
    String nomDossier = p_dossier.getNomDossier();
    if (nomDossier.equals(EnDossierBase.BROUILLON.getLib())) {
        label.setIcon(IconeTreeFactory.getBrouillon());

    } else {

    }
    int unreadMess = p_dossier.getUnreadMessCount();
    if (unreadMess > 0) {
        label.setText(nomDossier + " (" + unreadMess + ")");
        label.setFont(Fontfactory.getTREE_FONT_GRAS());
    } else {
        label.setText(nomDossier);
        label.setFont(Fontfactory.getTREE_FONT_PLAIN());
    }
    return;

i found a way to speed up the decoration of my jtree, the jtree use the method "toString()" to paint a node so i have override the method in my two kind of node, so, in my customTreeCellRenderer, i just call the toString method on my userObject and that work. Thanks for your help.
