cannot make sense of a fitter path message

Hi again,

excuse my ignorance but I'm watching my global buffer usage and I came across that:

Info (176353): Automatically promoted node estimator_bank:i_dut|timing_estimators:i_timing_estim|p_pipeline~0

I have indeed a process called "p_pipeline", but what is "~0" ?

thanks

    I think you should ignore that. Quartus generates these kind of names.

    You can see that, too, if you open Signaltap and ask for a list of available signals, as seen in the Attachment.
