There are three Modes for developer dashboard (DD)
•On: Means the dashboard starts collecting the statistics and the same is displayed at the bottom of the page(for SharePoint 2010)
•Off (default): No statistics are collected
•OnDemand: An icon is displayed at the top right corner of the page. On clicking the icon, the statistics are shown at the bottom of the page (for SharePoint 2010) or in a new window(for SharePoint 2013)
