3.4. Reducing Placement Time
The time required to place a design depends on two factors: the number of ways the logic in your design can be placed in the device, and the settings that control the amount of effort required to find a good placement.
You can reduce the placement time by changing the settings for the placement algorithm.
Sometimes there is a trade-off between placement time and routing time. Routing time can increase if the placer does not run long enough to find a good placement. When you reduce placement time, ensure that it does not increase routing time and negate the overall time reduction.
