I was under impression that my LV FPGA code can be compiled by many workers when I purchased and installed FPGA Compile Farm Toolkit. What I'm experiencing though, is that each compile job can only be compiled by one worker. I expected a single compile job can be split by many workers. I see a worker from either computer will compile so both worker computers do work. It's just that only one worker will compile at a time. Did I just misunderstand the capabilities of Compile Farm Toolkit or is this a setup issue? Thanks

No, a single compile cannot be split between workers. Nature of the beast- FPGA 'compilation' is not something that lends itself to parallelism. You do gain the advantage that the compile tools run considerably faster under linux, though.

Just to give an update, I'm consistantly getting my 45-50% compile time savings using Turbo Boost. I also tried Cloud Compile Server using 30-day eval code and the result is disappointing, 110 minutes.
