How to disable XDebug

Question

I think that my server became slow since I installed XDebug. So, in order to test my hypothesis I want to disable XDebug completely. I've been searching for tutorials on how to do this but I can't find such information.

Accepted Answer

Find your `php.ini` and look for XDebug.

Set xdebug autostart to false

```
xdebug.remote_autostart=0  
xdebug.remote_enable=0
```

Disable your profiler

```
xdebug.profiler_enable=0
```

Note that there can be a performance loss even with xdebug disabled but loaded. To disable loading of the extension itself, you need to comment it in your php.ini. Find an entry looking like this:

```
zend_extension = "/path/to/php_xdebug.dll"
```

and put a `;` to comment it, e.g. `;zend_extension = …`.
