I've switched back to WSL1 and the speed is back to normal. I've tried the comments on this thread, no luck getting it load fast like WSL 1. Here is the video of the same development site running on WSL 2 (Please look at left bottom status bar) What I did was wsl -set-version Ubuntu 2, to upgrade the current Ubuntu distro to WSL2. I've capture the video and sharing with you all. The hostname is mapped to 127.0.0.1, I've tried mapped on WSL2 Ubuntu private IP, the results are the same - Slow. It's fast like the data is loading on my machine itself.īut when I switch to WSL2, I notice the connection is extremely slow. I do not have connection problem when running in WSL1, the speed is tremendous fast.

I run php development in WSL with Ubuntu 18.04.4, I have apache2, php7.2 and MariaDB running very well on WSL1ĭuring development, I usually tunnel to my server to load ElasticSearch/Postgresql data, the tunnel is listen on localhost with respective port numbers. But not particularly on the internet, it's more on Windows to Ubuntu via localhost access I have the similar slow issue like you all had.
