XAMPP with Wordpress running too too slow

Question

I am using latest version of xampp and wordpress for development of my new website. Although i am working with xampp and wordpress since couple of years but this new version has frustrated me like anything. Using this new version of Xampp with wordpress is loading one page of the site on local machine in 3-5 minutes. I have tried many changes but really not helping. Can I have some insight over this. This is really annoying and frustrating. Any advice will be lifesaver for me. My system specs:

Processor - Intel(R)Core i5-5200U CPU @2.20GHZ
RAM 8GB
64 Bit OS
Windows 10 Home

Errors are not coming but the loading of any page is extremely slow. Internet speed is pretty descent and as its on localhost so it should not worry about that.

Answer 1

In your WordPress wp-config.php file, is the entry for DB_HOST 'localhost'? If so, change it to '127.0.0.1' and see if it helps.

Another way check your IP address on your local network like 192.168.0.111 Then edit your hosts file like

Change to

/etc/hosts 192.168.0.111 mysite.org

or try MAMP it is more speed optimized
