Hey Roman, the issue might be caused by Xdebug PHP extension. I always disable it for every site created in Local and that improves the page load.

Learn how to disable it here: [How can I disable the Xdebug PHP extension?](https://localwp.com/community/t/how-can-i-disable-the-xdebug-php-extension/18120)
