Thanks HRZ,

I apologize but my post was misleading; I've observed memory persistence in hardware. I've been having issues with getting autorun kernels to restart so I've been doing workaround which causes me to lose memory persistence.

I'll put in a support request with Altera and update if/when I get a response.
