Problem with Quartus Prime 16.0 Lite Edition.

Hi, Can anyone help me with this issue? Whenever I start compiling my design in Quartus Prime 16.0 Lite Edition, the memory consumption shoots up to 100 % and Quartus becomes " Not Responding"....

How much memory do you have? Quartus is a memory hog for larger devices. If you don't have enough physical memory you can add virtual memory (in Windows anyway).

Edit: Just noticed that you're running Lite Edition so can't target the big devices like Arria 10 and Stratix. 8 GB should be plenty of RAM for any of the devices you can target.
