Nios II floating point custom instructions

I designed a set of Nios II custom instructions implementing: 

- single precision floating point add/sub, mul and div 

- double precision floating point add/sub and div 

 

together with the relevant C routines (__addsf3, __subsf3, __mulsf3, __divsf3, __adddf3, __subdf3, __divdf3) that replace the corresponding routines in libgcc.a. 

 

The zip file also includes an implementation example targeting the Altera Nios II Stratix dev board.

Do you know approximately how many Megaflops per MHz is possible to obtain with a Stratix or other altera chip? 

 

Thank you for your reply.
