The order in which local symbols and functions in a DynamicModule are
defined seems to affect evaluation time (or rendering time).  I wonder if
there is any way of tracing all operations performed internally in
Mathematica before displaying the evaluated version of DynamicModules.

I understand that dynamic variables which have not been assigned an initial
value will get their initial value by evaluating objects like PopupMenu or
Slider.  This could significantly affect evaluation time for several reasons
but in fairly complicated applications it is not trivial to follow all
internal processes performed before displaying DynamicModules.  It would be
great to have a log of the step-by-step process used by DynamicModule to
evaluate its content before displaying.

Any information in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
