Other solution for contact force besides spring-damper system

Hello,
I try to simulate a walking robot in Simmechanics but it seems that the calculations of the contact forces between the robot and the floor are so time consuming that the simulation gets almost stuck.
I modeled the contact force with a spring-damper system in both horizontal and vertical direction.
Is there any other solution i could try?
Kind regards and Thanky in advance!
