Conformal LEC can't finish at analyze abort step. How do I proceed?

Hi Cadence & forumers, 

I am running a conformal LEC with a flattened netlist against RTL. 

The run hang for 5 days at the "analyze abort" step which is automatically launched by the compare. 

The netlist is flattened at some levels so hierarchical flow which I tried didn't help much. The flattened/highly optimized netlist is from customer and the ultimate goal. How shall I proceed now? 

On the a side note, a test run with a hierarchical netlist from a simple DC "compile -map_effort medium" command finished after 1 day or so. 

Thank you!
