Hi all,

I am new here so "hi" and I hope this hasn't been answered before (I did
check on google groups!).

I have a development server (Apache 2.2.4 / php 5.2.3) running on Vista.
It seems to be set-up ok and everything works... but it is achingly
slow. In terms of local development it is almost quicker to ftp
everything to a remote server and then test. The pages load, the code
executes but it is akin to be back on a 56k modem and it is the local
machine!

If anyone could help - that would be terrific.

Cheers,

Mat

Vista isn't really geared towards a server environment. You'd be better
off using Linux or Windows 2k.

Hi David,

Thank you for your reply. Point taken, but it should be able to work as
a tiny dev server on the local machine... and what is most frustrating
is that it does - but slowly! Any ideas on how I can find the
bottleneck? It must be something simple, surely, as it doesn't fail etc.
it just takes an awful long time to come up with the goods (2+ ghz ram
serving tiny static site).

That's interesting. I don't have vista so I can't be of much help but try a
websearch for
apache slow on windows vista
or something like that

here's the top result on google for that search
http://www.apachefriends.org/f/view...235a32fb288e8a0

The only suggestions I could give are pretty obvious so you might have
already checked. See what processes you have running and eliminate anything
from startup that's not necessary. If you don't know what you're doing don't
start ending processes all willy nilly. Is IIS running too? If so maybe
that's causing a conflict. I'm just guessing though.
