Thanks for the feedback. What elements are you finding slow or is it the entire 
testing process? Is the target site you are testing also on localhost?

The Stored XSS test typically takes longer than all of the other tests combined 
together as the entire website(all URLS found during crawl) are searched each 
time a payload is submitted. Therefore, disabling the stored XSS test in 
"Options" will significantly reduce the duration of a test.
