I think I found my answer - it is one of the example designs provided in the openlane repository

(edited) serial-parallel multiplier => serial-parallel multiplier is that it stands for, and yep it's a very-small sample design

Rob Taylor Actually had a talk with Ahmed Ghazy and Mohamed Shalan yesterday about Edalize, OpenLane and cloud use-cases

I have access through Tim/Openroad and it is definitely helpful. But I still feel I am not using the gcp to its full potential. Do you have access to gcp? Maybe you could help me enhance my scripts 😉
sure, would be happy to see if i can help

nice :)
Update: the flow works fine with 1x2 and 2x2 CLBs fabrics without timing optimization (OpenPhySyn doesn’t support disable timing loops). For the 4x4 CLBs fabric, it’s stuck at global routing (fastroute)?

Does the time go up exponentially?

Could we produce a 2x2 clb gds and then stitch together to make a bigger fabric?

Running time are almost same: 12s (1x2 clbs) and 13s (2x2 clbs)

Interesting. Same for 3x3?

I wonder - are you hitting memory limits and it’s going into swap?

I haven’t tried 3x3, need to ask Jing to generate codes. I don’t think memory is limited, it used only 1% of memory (64GB) when routing

Same when going the 4x4?

yes, same memory at 1%

Very odd. Ok let’s get a 3x3 tested, find out where this breaks and then let’s submit a bug

Or maybe 2x4 if that’s easier

it’s OK with 2x4, global routing took 16s, looks like the running time doesn’t go exponentially

Ok, it’d be good to prepare a test case that shows the working version and the non working version and submit that as a bug against openlane

@_slack_skywater-pdk_U017X0NM2E7:matrix.orgMitch Bailey How is openlane related to openroad? Is openlane a wrapper to the openroad flow or an enhancement? 06:44:21
@_slack_skywater-pdk_U01GE4F371D:matrix.orgRob Taylor Mitch Bailey openlane uses openroad 07:13:01
