timequest timing analyzer spend too much time to report timing

The timequest timing analyzer spend too much time(exceed 6hours) to report timing on one big hold violation path. I use quartusII/10.1sp1. Anyone have similar experience on it? Thanks a lot

On top of what Risc is asking, maybe you can give us additional information on the device family, type of design, etc.

Can you also tell us if TimeQuest reports a warning on combinational nodes? Combinational nodes require exponential time to analyze.

6hrs is not normal, so filing a case with http://mysupport.altera.com (ideally with the design) will help us debug it.
