Thanks Chris for your quick answer,

I am trying to elaborate on it.

Due to fact that I need to do the profiling on every Url, on a complex
dynamic site, I can't do that.

That's actually what I need. On the rendering of every URL, I have some
presentation DTML methods calling each other (including a recursive DTML
call). So I would like to know the percentage of time spent by each of these
methods within the global page rendering time.
