Hi, I'am back after severel years.
I'am an information technician and develope for (ASM,Pascal,C++,C#,php, nodejs) for 18 years now as a day job.
Back in 2001/2002 I developed an well desigend and fast Bitcoin miner for an XD2000i (Stratix III).
And now I got my hand on two Terasic TR5-F45M (5SGXEA7N2F45C2) or DE5Net and have a new project developing...
I develop on my old custom build PC
-CPU AMD FX 8350 (8-Core)
-RAM 16GB
-TR5-F45M (Stratix V)
-Windows 10 Pro 64
-Altera/Intel FPGA OpenCl SDK
-Visual Studio 2017
I have moved the whole "altera" folder and the project to an fast PCI-e SSD, and my compile times (first stage) dropped from 10 to 20 minutes to around 2 minutes.
The second stage now uses up to 100% of all 8 cores and aound 12 GB RAM, and that wasn't so before, I utilized around 12% to 25 % on average.
compiling still takes time, and I just sit here and wait.. but I wanted to tell you about this improvemnt.
best regards Dennis
any comments are welcome.

Hi. I saw you try to mine Ethereum on FPGA. You uses TR5-F45M . Is it was successful?
