Problems when using Kinect and Asus Xtion (robot is working too slow, robot stop working after some time etc.) are usually caused by lack of computing resources.

In general the on-board computer is capable of working with this sensors, however, there are some limitations. Usually user have to think about optimization of the algorithm eg. using only certain parts of the information provided by sensor. It is also helpful to check libraries dependencies. Some of them needs for example CUDA technology to work properly so it is impossible to implement them on on-board computer.
