Slow performance of Gazebo8 with actors

Hello,

I need to simulate a very simple environment with a mobie robot and a human walking around it. I launch my simulation setup and everything is running properly. However Gazebo GUI responds very slowly. My computer is an Intel i7 and I could check using the system monitor that one CPU is working around 100% and it requires around 4GB of RAM (it has 8G). The behaviour is completely different if I run the simulation without the actor. The requirements of so many resources is something normal with actors or I could have something wrong configurated and that's why is not working properly?

Thanks in advance

Ane

Hi Ane, do you get the same performance decrease when running the actor.world which comes with Gazebo?
