Hello,

Yes, I'm positive that it was the synthesized snapshot. For one, because I never ran the fitter on the design I exported from (it's not something you can do accidentally, given the time it takes to complete on Arria-10). And also because I did this directly with the command line:

quartus_cdb my_core -c my_core --export_partition my_core --snapshot synthesized --file my_core.qdb

So there's no doubt about that.

Regards,

Eli
