BARRELSHIFTER_CARRY_CHAIN_PACKING
Allows the Compiler to reduce the number of logic elements required by implementing barrelshifters in carry chains. This option repacks barrelshifters more efficiently for area, but may negatively affect timing. With the 'Auto' setting synthesis will make the trade-off between area and speed. Setting to 'Off' will disable this optimization, and setting to 'On' will enable it for all barrelshifters.
