Timing requirements to a part of a circuit

Does anybody know how to set timing requirements to a part of a circuit? I mean there is a critical part of a circuit that needs frequency optimization, and it's not rational to apply frequency cons...

In Altera's examples they set multicycle_path for enabled triggers and thus don't set timing requirements for them at all. However, sometimes this part of a project still needs timing requirements (maybe less strict). Is it possible set timing requirements for such piece of a project?

Another problem that I've faced is difficulties in specifying triggers to set multicycling option to if they are "buried" into the project's hierarchy.
