Hi,
So, Quartus 22.2 doesn't officially support Windows 11.
But to get the best from Intel 12th Gen processors (which have a mix of P & E cores) requires the 'Thread Director' which is only in Windows 11.
I'm trying Quartus 22.2 on an i9-12900k, and it does seem to occasionally use E (Efficiency) cores by mistake - since these are quite slow.
In fact, running two compilations at once appears to sometimes push the 2nd compile almost solely into E cores, making it really slow.
I'm sure this will be resolved over time, but would appreciate any suggestions / thoughts.
Thanks,
Richard
