@OMR the given answer does not help after all, as Composer does not use mod_php – Nico Haase

You can try installing this package that enables parallelization of the downloads.

composer global require hirak/prestissimo

Also when running your composer command use the -vvv flag if you are running into issues.

  composer require laravel/ui -vvv

You can try to increase de Memory Limit to 2 Gigabytes, as Laravel suggest, in your php.ini. On XAMPP it is located at C:\xampp\php\php.ini

; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (128MB)
; http://php.net/memory-limit
memory_limit = 2G

In my case, it was a problem with missing swap partition. More info: https://github.com/composer/composer/issues/7348#issuecomment-414178276
