I'm working on small designs for a computer architecture course with Nexys4 DDR boards. Vivado seems pretty slow, maybe 3-4 minutes to go from verilog files to bitstream file on a Windows 8, Intel i5, 2.2GHz, 8GB RAM.
1. Is this "compile" time normal?
2. Are there ways to skip the optimization steps to make a less-efficient (space/run-speed wise) design, eg, is there a "gcc -O0 file.c" equivalent?
3. Is there any (time/speed) advantage to running Vivado commands in the shell rather than via GUI?
