Zac,
Could you post your current configs for move_base and amcl? It's kinda hard
to say what might be causing your problems without knowing what settings you
are trying to use.
What type of computer are you running this on? Size of a priori map? And can
you include the output of 'rosrun tf tf_monitor' (I'm interested to see the
delay information for amcl since what reported seems unusual - amcl delay
should be negative since it future stamps all of it's transforms)?
