there is a file called my.ini for mysql(windows) which contains

'innodb_buffer_pool_size=M'

(if no such field you can add explicitly under mysqld tag) where M is MB you can use G for GB increasing this value will solve your purpose and remember to verify using query

show variables like '%innodb_buffer_pool_size%';
