Wait until it hits MAP and hit CTRL-C? Then do your business and it'll
usually skip synthesis on the next run....

Hi Ryan,
Thanks a lot for the quick answer! Given the current capser_xps, is
there any command I can skip to avoid placement? Does IP Synthesis
finish the synthesized design?

Nope! But we should change the choices on Casper xps (imo) to
Update design

(Everything "copy base package" through Synthesis)
The rest

Hi Casper,
[Question]:
Is there a way to ask casper_xps to finish synthesized design
and stop there (meaning not to attempt placement), and I take
over in PlanAhead? This will save me a few hours each run. I
checked the casper wiki for casper_xps but I'm not sure which
step corresponds to completion of synthesized design.
[Background]:
We have an X-engine design that is guaranteed not to meet
timing in casper_xps compiling, but we have found a reliable
floor planning strategy (pblocks etc) in PlanAhead to make it
compile. I have been debugging it thus making minor changes
that makes no difference as far as compiling is concerned, so
it is a waste of time in casper_xps to go from a synthesised
design to an implemented design, given that its implementation
will fail timing anyways. (I'm using planahead language here,
sorry if that's not clear.)
Thank you guys so much!
