18 years agoArriaGX compile times
Hi everyone, I'm working on an ArriaGX-based design and have been getting obscene compile times (2-3hrs usually, 30mins-1hr w/ NO changes since last compile & full incremental compile on). ...

18 years agoYes, I do have physical synthesis turned on. Unfortunately the altera PCIe IP core (which I'm using in this design) will not meet timing when I turn it off. I have worked with an Altera FSE on this and we can't find any way around this.
I've tried all the normal things to get the compile times down (reducing timing constraints where possible, pipelining my portion of the design, setting the compiler to optimize for speed, etc).. I appreciate the responses, but would be really interested to know what kind of compile times other users of the ArriaGX are getting... Thanks, Frank
