10 years ago --- Quote Start --- It seems like the problem is different in my case. I tried all combinations twice, and the Talkback option doesn't seem to make a difference in my case: Or you use the Subscription edition, in which case disabling TalkBack is definitely the better option. --- Quote End --- We do use the subscription edition. We had exactly the behavior you described originally - Quartus would hang between each phase of a compilation. Our compilations at that time took around an hour and would increase by 15 to 20 minutes when talkback was enabled. We did substantial testing to confirm that the talkback setting was responsible for this additional delay. Our FAE also got an earful... Admittedly, this was with an older version of Quartus - not sure exactly which, probably around 10 or 11. Since then, we have religiously made sure that talkback was always disabled, so it very well may not apply to newer versions. However, I would point out that our compilation times were substantially longer than yours (I assume your numbers are mins:secs since you replied so quick), so this issue may become more apparent with longer compilation times.
