Hello?
I am spending almost 5 hours to complete the compilation of the code in Quartus-II (6.1). In the case of using most of the resources, it it normal to have this kind of long compilation time?
I am using Stratix-II EP2S180F and running Q-II (6.1) in Windows XP (32bit) on Intel(R) Core 2 Cpu 6600 (2.4GHz) with 3.00 GB of RAM. I am wondering whether there is a setting which is very sensitive to the compilation time which I did not carefully check. Any advice would be deeply appreciated. Thank you.

Hi John,
the compilation time depends on a lot of parameters. Maybe it is possible for you to look which part of the flow causes the long runtime. If it is the synthesis or the fitting ( placement and routing) ? Do you have timing requirement which are difficult to achieve ?
In case you have a high devcie utilization, I would expect long runtimes also.
Can you post some more info's here ?
Kind regards
