magento2
I install Magento 2 on MAMP Localhost on Mac but I don't know why It runs really slow on frontend and backend even I did turn on Varnish cache, minify CSS and JS, turn magento to developing mode and change php memory_limit to 1G. Can you guys please help? Here is my configuration:
Macbook Air 2015:
– CPU: i5 1.6GHz
– Memory: 8GB
– SSD: 128GB
MAMP:
– php: 7.0.22
– MySQL: 5.6.35
When to delete the logs file of MAMP, sometime when an error appear, the log will be write to logs file, and if the size of file too big, this will make MAMP slow.
Try to delete 3 file inside log folder:
Restart MAMP, hope it help!
I tried everything and the only thing it works is the virtual machine that provides bitnami. https://bitnami.com/stack/magento/virtual-machine
Seriously, I don't know what has this vm, but goes really fast. I tried creating my VM using a fresh installation of Ubuntu, CentOS, etc. But no works so fine like this VM.

The following steps should help your speed up your dev box:
Disable CSS / JS minification or enable production mode
When developer mode is enabled, CSS and JS minifying / combining is processed on the fly. This process uses a lot of CPU usage and makes Magento very slow.
I'd recommend to either enable production mode or disable all CSS and JS related optimizations when using developer mode.
Close Chrome dev tools or enable browser cache
Besides the above, the front-end can take a very long time to load when chrome dev tools is open with cache disabled in the network tab. Closing dev tools or enabling the cache in dev tools will solve that issue.
Enable Magento cache except FPC
Enabling all caches except the FPC generally speeds up Magento 2 a lot, while allowing you to still work with it reasonably well.
Disable xDebug
If PHP xDebug is enabled, you should disable it and only enable it when debugging.
