Compilation time for Quartus II 9.0

So here is my result:

3C120 design, same source, same constraints, two independant directory, compiled twice each for 8.1 and 9.0 (for the second time the design was changed by one line, which pulls different signals to test pins).

Resource usage: 52% in 9.0 and 54% in 8.1.
