Getting the bit-bang timing valid is easy, the most you'd need to do is write the same value to the io port a few times. However a 100MHz nios probably can't do things too quickly anyway, especially since Avalon bus writes are synchronous (unless they've changed that for teh new version). The 'memory utilisation' of 33% only include the used parts of the memory blocks - even though the rest of the blocks is typically unusable.
