if i made a glTranslatef() inside of a DL, OGL will made the calculations of the glTranslatef() every time i render the DL, or it will made the calculation on the time i create it. Saying with others words... If i create a DL with matrix transformations the OGL wold made the dynamcs vertexs in statics vertexs?

Anything you do in a display list is repeated verbatim each time the display list is run.
However, display lists can call other display lists. By redefining them, you can modify the behaviour of the "top-level" lists.
