Hi all,
Anyone ever noticed the performance improvement when compiling same design in different versions of DC say DC 2000.5 & DC 2004.06
with the same SCRIPT

AREA, TIMING ---How much improvement??

Yes, the DC2004.06 have big improvement of QoR, cpu time. But few

man will compare it with 2000.05. I compare it with 2003.12, the

improvement is significant.

maybe the difference depends on your design size and complex. more large and more complex, more high the performence improves

I run a design about MCU,
the cpu time the 2004.06 cost is 1/12,
and the area is 17/23

hi,
I compare 2003.12 and 2004.06
but only found the run time and area is improved but the timing is the same.
and I heard of option which is XG. does anyone use it?
