Quartus Compilation Profiling

Hello all, there is a way to know what entity quartus is compiling during analysis and synthesis?

My compilation is running from 13 hours..

    I found root cause of compilation time..

    A VHDL code like that: 

    a <= 1 when a = 0 else a;

    Now compile in 6-7 minutes.. :D but this took me 10+ hours.. maybe next Quartus can have a compilation profiler?

    Nice code ;) suppose better to implement some kind of watchdog at compilation time so abort compile may occur faster than in 10 hours

    Signals should go ahead and why you try to turn around one :)

    I beleve Quartus puts the entity it is compiling in the compilation notes.
