compiling a design that instantiate 4096 times the same module

--- Quote Start ---

Btw, using a generate loop is the only way to place it. Logic locks just lock down existing code. and partitions are just pre-compiled code. But you still need the code.

Yes it fits but to compile takes many hours, so I wonder if the force brute technique is the right one ... If it were a standard cell I would define and compile a cell then I would place it all the needed times getting a regular structure. In this case I have to compile the same module 4096 times ... Maybe I should use another compiler - synthetizer in top of quartus ?

thanks
