Is Windows XP and XAMPP able to render complex development sites in Drupal 7? I am developing a site, and in the Linux server it goes very fast, with peaks of memory of 40 MBytes, according to Devel module. However, when I test it exactly the same in Windows XP and Xampp, it takes a long time to serve each page, even if the memory usage is a little less - (25 Mb !? ). When Drupal 7 is freshly installed, with default configuration, it is very fast, but when I add modules, etc., it takes ages to load any page, even if the memory usage is low as I said. Memory limit of PHP is 128 Megabytes.
Sorry if my question was not well formatted. It happens that the theme installed was rebuilding on every page load, and that consumed lots of RAM. I switched off the rebuild, and it worked very fast, as expected. It was not a specific OS problem, but a performance one due to theme rebuilding
