For people who think there is no way we are in a simulation, maybe you could think hypothetically...
I think I read somewhere that the speed of light would make there be a limit to how CPU intensive the simulation is...
Also time and space being relatively discrete (rather than infinite precision) means it can theoretically be simulated on a computer.
Apparently time slows down due to gravity (related to how crowded things are) - which would also reduce the CPU usage.
BTW the type of simulation I believe in uses "level of detail" rather than always explicitly simulating every particle in the universe.
