Running sites on “localhost” is extremely slow

Question

Having real trouble using my localhost to test sites. It runs extremely slowly! Sometimes it takes up to a minute to load a page. I\'m using Firefox and the sites I\'m testi

Answer 1

In my case, originally the following error was occurring:

Cannot read configuration file due to insufficient permissions

I fixed the error by using the proposed solution and restarted the application through IIS Manager. The original error was gone but the application was taking forever to load. I gave the permissions to IIS_IUSRS again but this time to the whole deployment folder. After this, the application was able to load though an error was showing up:

This configuration section cannot be used at this path

After resolving the above-mentioned error using the solution, the application was finally loading without giving any error.
