Foundation F1.3 XABEL: BLIF2OPT hangs or gives virtual memory overflow error


Record #3186

Problem Title:
Foundation F1.3 XABEL: BLIF2OPT hangs or gives virtual memory overflow error


Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:

BLIF2OPT either hangs or runs out of virtual memory


Solution 1:

This is caused by having large equations in the design. The
only known work-around is to decompose the large equations
(typically with comparators).
Add the directive:
@carry 4;
after the equation statement. Alternatively, equations can be broken
up manually.
