They have probably the most intrusive AVP installed, Symantec. They also seem to prevent me from making any updates to it. But that sounds like a reasonable potentiality.

Add your source code and AMP directories to the exceptions list and that helps. It also plays havoc if you are doing any version control when you try to update or commit. If that isn't the problem, I suggest switching to WAMPServer 2.0. I've been running that for a couple of years and haven't had any problems, plus you can enable op-code caching like APC with a simple right click on the task bar icon for WAMP.

Have you looked at task manager to confirm where the processing is going? 9 out of 10 times my dev environment performance problems have been antivirus related. Try temporarily turning off on access scanning and see if that helps.

This is on D6, so, it's not Innodb. With Devel attributing less than one third of 1% of the time to MySql, I'm not even looking there.

Nancy,
If you are running under Windows, there is an issue with MySQL if you are using the InnoDB storage engine. MySQL waits for confirmations from Windows that never come, so it takes a very long time for some queries to execute. To get around this, add the following directive to your my.cnf file:
innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 2
This might help to speed things up.
Thanks, Chris

Virtualbox is free, and allows you then to run another virtual computer (like linux) in a window. That said, while it all is free, it is no minor thing to get a linux dev environment up if you never did it before, and may not fix the issue at all.

Other than what Zend provides, no, I cannot install any other software, especially if it's not free.

Thanks, Jeff. Unfortunately, Windoze is my only option. Nor may I install any accelerators.
Jeff mentioned Virtualbox. Is installing virtualization software, which runs on Windows, but provides an environment in which you can use opcode caching, an option?
Best, Ezra
