title: PHP Webpage not loading - Nothing in apache access logs
body: <p>I have been seeing a strange problem with one of my PHP page intermittently.</p>
  
  <p>I found that the Page was loading forever and tried to do some tests with curl.</p>
  
  <p>here are the results </p>
  
  <p>1st run- % -> 0 and keptloading until 01:01(I ctrl+c'd)</p>
  
  <p>2nd run responded normally 4 secs load time</p>
  
  <p>3rd run again started to load for more than 5 secs, so ctrl+c'd</p>
  
  <p>4th run responded normally 4 secs load time</p>

  <p>I was tailing the apache access log while i was requesting the pages.
  When the page was not loading(aka 0% ) i was not able to see any entries in apache access logs.</p>
  
  <p>for 4 requests i can only see 2 access entries in the apache access log.</p>

  <ul>
  <li>Nothing in the apache error.log either</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p><strong>More info:</strong>
   1 .The same is the case over HTTP vs HTTPS </p>
  
  <p>2 .i am using win 2003 with xampp 1.8.0(recently updated xampp , and was seeing slower load times  even before i updated.)  </p>
  
  <p>3 .apache 2.4 , php 5.4 The page i am loading   has minimal php code, with most of the code being HTML/JS.Its a login   page.</p>
  
  <p>I think that there is some thing wrong going with apache. Can anyone help me on how i could debug this problem?</p>
