OpenCL Compiling andother Improvments

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, I'am back after severel years. 

 I'am an information technician and develope for (ASM,Pascal,C++,C#,php, nodejs) for 18 years now as a day job.  Back in 2001/2002 I developed an well desigend and fast Bitcoin miner for an XD2000i (Stratix III).  And now I got my hand on two Terasic TR5-F45M (5SGXEA7N2F45C2) or DE5Net and have a new project developing...  I develop on my old custom build PC -CPU AMD FX 8350 (8-Core) -RAM 16GB -TR5-F45M (Stratix V) -Windows 10 Pro 64 -Altera/Intel FPGA OpenCl SDK -Visual Studio 2017  I have moved the whole "altera" folder and the project to an fast PCI-e SSD, and my compile times (first stage) dropped from 10 to 20 minutes to around 2 minutes.  The second stage now uses up to 100% of all 8 cores and aound 12 GB RAM, and that wasn't so before, I utilized around 12% to 25 % on average.  compiling still takes time, and I just sit here and wait.. but I wanted to tell you about this improvemnt.  best regards Dennis  any comments are welcome.

I saw you try to mine Ethereum on FPGA. You uses TR5-F45M . Is it was successful?
