Hi Neel,

Sorry about the mistake.

Actually I am trying to implement FFT in the Ettus RX-TX Path. Building the 
code along with the FFT takes much more time as expected.
Is there a way to specify  incremental place and route in Xilinx? I am hoping 
that this time can be reduced for small changes in the code, so that when 
rebuilding, I can use the old build files.

Hello Shoor:

Please keep the conversation on the mailing list.

A build time of 20 minutes for the B200mini FPGA is entirely normal. I'm not 
sure how much you would be able to reduce that. Again, try the build on a 
system with a higher clock speed and at least 8 GB memory. Our Xilinx ISE 
workflow does not have an incremental build process, and because Xilinx has 
ended development and support for ISE (Xilinx has deprecated ISE), we do not 
have any plans to add this capability.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi Neel,

I am using USRP B200mini. Even without any modification to the code, it take 
around 20 minutes to build.

Is there a way we can speed up the process so that if I do a small modification 
to the code, it takes less time? Like incrementally builds?

Hello Shoor:

How long is your Xilinx ISE build taking? Which USRP device are you using?

The primary thing would be to use a CPU with a higher clock speed. More memory 
helps too, as the build process is memory-intensive, but only up to a point. 
For the B200/B210 FPGA, a system with 8 GB memory should suffice.

Xilinx ISE won't really take advantage of multiple cores, so using a CPU with 
lots of cores won't help much.

Hi,

I am trying to modify the Ettus’s FPGA code and build the new code to get the 
bit file. But it takes a very long time for every build to be done. I am using 
Xilinx ISE for this work.
Is there any way I can get it to work faster?
