Best Computer for Quartus Compile Times...

Has anyone done any benchmarking of compile times with different computer configurations? My main question is how much will it improve my compile times if I add additional processors to my system. ...

Thanks for all the feedback. I will try Version 8, and I will install a second Xeon 5150 (2.66Ghz Dual Core). I'll benchmark these using a design that is tight on timing and uses about 35% of the resources on a 2S60 device and post the results. It currently takes about 30 minutes with Ver. 7.2.
