Issac Sim Crashes when loading example scenes

I am following this tutorial:
https://nvidia-isaac-ros.github.io/getting_started/isaac_sim/index.html

I installed Issac Sim natively and am following the instructions exactly. When I go to load the sample scene in the Issac Examples menu, subtab ROS Issac freezes at 99%. More generally when Issac is loading I get lots of “Issac Sim is not responding” error messages.

I am on Ubuntu 22.04.03, RTX 3080.

So it hung at 99% for 20 minutes and finally loaded, it appears to be working in a very sluggish fashion but I’m not sure as I’m still having issues sending ROS commands through docker to the environment.
