Localhost taking too long. What to do?

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.

Just want to share my fix with this similar problem.

Try changing the permission of the user "Authenticated Users" of the drive where XAMPP is installed (for me its C:). Right click Drive C:\, click "Security" tab, edit "Authenticated Users", allow everything except "full control" and "special permission" which you can't. Apply and OK. Restart XAMPP.

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!

I just changed the server name from localhost to 127.0.0.1 in database connection configuration and it worked light speed.

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.
