Laravel Windows high memory usage on new install?
I have a brand new laravel install with just debugbar installed and it shows 17mb being used. Is this normal? PHP 8.1.6, Laravel latest, Windows 10 (direct install -i.e. XAMPP and no sail).
I am trying to follow the new "Eloquent Performance Patterns" series on laracasts and noticed that this is considered "high" in that. Just trying to gauge what is the baseline on Windows?

That sounds very strange to me, I just created a fresh Laravel 9 project with Debugbar and it uses 1Mb for the welcome view on my iMac.
Have you made any code changes at all?
Level 3
@Tray2 no changes. Brand new install + debugbar. I think this is Windows/Xampp related.

Maybe try installing wsl2 and then Ubuntu. Then add a new project on there and run it with php artisan serve
Level 3
@Sinnbeck Just checked ~ 4MB.
Level 102
@CLab ok so a windows or xampp bug. Try php artisan serve in windows with xampp php
Level 3
@Sinnbeck That is what I did and it was 17MB
Level 102
@CLab oh thought you used xampp as webserver.
Seems you need to make a choice then. Live with it or switch to wsl2 + Ubuntu
Level 3
@Sinnbeck I am fine living with it - as long as this is normal for Windows with XAMPP. Just want to know what others see.
Level 102
@CLab I don't own a windows pc so I cannot test it myself. Maybe someone else can :)

May be also check if Xdebug is enabled?
Level 3
@Niush Xdebug is not enabled as checked by phpinfo(). If any other way to check - please let me know.
Level 102
@CLab just run php -v and it will tell you
