PLACEMENT_EFFORT_MULTIPLIER

Controls how much time the fitter spends in placement. The default value is 1.0 and legal values must be greater than 0. Specifying a floating-point number allows you to control the placement effort. A lower value decreases CPU time but may decrease placement quality. Placement Effort Multiplier cannot be directly increased to a value greater than 1.0. Use predefined Optimization Mode settings to increase placement effort for improved timing optimization.
