Localhost taking too long. What to do?

Question

I'm working on a project. Yesterday it was working very fine but when I've updated my system OS from Windows 7 32 bit to Windows 8 64 bit and wamp server from 32 bit to 64 bit now I'm getting very slow localhost response in my Php project (6 Senonds delay on each page) also I didn't change anything within the script. Unable to identify what could be the problem.

Answer 1

Disabling the ipv6 also improves response speed issue.

Answer 2

WAMPServer has some probelms with Windows 8. Use XAMPP. I am a hardcore WAMPServer user. But, had to switch to XAMPP due to some threading issues.

Answer 3

As an IPV6 issue, here is how you make MYSQL not to use it. (so, without disabling IPV6)

edit mysql file 'my.ini'

under the [wampmysqld] add the following: bind-address = ::

save file and restart mysql service

enjoy!
