It seems that there is an issue with localhost dns resolution on windows 8. Following the instructions in this article did it for me:

I had the same problem, I had the 64bit version of WAMP installed. I exported by databases (mySql). Uninstalled WAMP, downloaded and installed the 32bit version. Imported my databases. The speed difference was VERY noticeable... You might want to give that a try.

Is this problem occuring on other browsers than Internet Explorer?

If not it might be related to Apache's Multi-Processing Module optimized for Windows NT. This has been named as one of the possible causes for a very unresponsive / hanging Apache.

The fix would be to add this to your httpd.conf:

AcceptFilter http none
AcceptFilter https none

See my blog post on this topic for more information.
