WampServer

I do Wordpress development using WampServer 32 bit on Win 8.1.

It's slow - even takes a while to call up just the localhost on the browser.

Does anyone has suggestions on how to improve this?

Thanks

this is always a difficult one to put your finger on, maybe your issue is memory, or lack of it.

MySQL changed a default value for table_definition_cache in 5.5 I think it was and the default is hugh and causes MySQL to consume about half a gig of memory.

So first try this: Edit the my.ini file and add this line inside the [wampmysqld] section

# reduce mem size for MYISAM usage
table_definition_cache = 600
