my FPGA experience for two months has shown to me PC was much much more
faster than Sun.
While I was impressed by the speed of Sun when it was handling digital ASIC
layout data...I can't test
the speed of the FPGA Editor on Sun as I use Exceed...

My experience from ~4-5 years ago was that the PII ran the precursor to ISE
about twice as fast as the unix machines I had access to. Of course, if
someone else was doing anything intensive on the unix machine, it went
further downhill. (Yes, if I ran other apps on the PC, things slowed down,
too... but I could choose whether to run them or not.) I've seen similar
results more recently with Spectrum and ModelSim (i.e., running
significantly faster on what PC I had available versus the unix box I had
available.)

Hi, there:
I don't understand why a big chunk Sun workstation runs ISE 6 much slower
than a P3-1GHz!!!
Is this the right behavior or my workstation is lousy? I remembered my Sun
was bought 2 years ago,
over 10K US$...
Anybody use ISE on Unix?
Thanks for your reply...
