Hello all, from a while I'm having problem with Assura running times, crashing, etc, etc, etc .... and I'm seeking some advice in building a good computer to reduce all this issues. ( from memory, CPU, graphic card, swap memory, etc,etc,etc ) Just to have an idea of the layout size 25612um x 32612um .... Thanks for your help Kind Regards

     Hi RRibeiro,

    at first, it would be helpful to have some more informations about the complexity of your design,
    what technology node are you dealing with, 2um or 32nm?
    What about hierarchy, do you have large arrays repeating the same structure?

    And, the chipsize you are mentioning is very, very large,  about 800mm2, this is more than
    twice the size of a current AMD cpu; the size comes close to the limits of a whole stepping field;

    is your design a power-device or an image-sensor or do you just work on a whole
    reticle-assembly consisting of more than one chip??

    kind regards

    Stefan
