changing floating license port speeds compile

Why would changing the floating license port from 1819 to 1820 speed up Quartus compileing times?

Choon Lee,

We found the answer. Change the license.dat on the client computer to point to port 1820 (for Quartus compile speedup) . Then, change the ENV variable on the client computer to point to port 1819 (for ModelSim license). Compile speeds are down to ~30 seconds, and ModelSim can find it's license. All works fine now.

Thank you,

Doug
