🧪 Profile live statistics page (#5365)

Adds a sort of profiling to this page by placing some timers in some key function where I think the slowdown happens. Why is it so hacky? I tried for several hours to use werkzeug's `ProfilerMiddleware` but I think there's a bug with the implementation, as several people have reported in some other tools: django-commons/django-debug-toolbar#1875, jazzband/django-silk#682

I thought that since we didn't need the full-fledged tool and didn't want to spend more time on this, this approach would suffice.
