P = I * A

Typically 10 or 20 AMP circuits draw :

10 * 120 = 1200 W

20 * 120 = 2400 W

Watts of power.

So, 600W is a lot on one circuit, (25% to 50%) of total output.

That in of itself will produce a significant amount of heat.

As @MT_Head says, you need to decrease your draw, and that is only going to be accomplished by switching out the bulbs to a more efficient bulb.

It will be more expensive. but that is the cost of efficiency.
