CAUSE: You specified the assignment MAX_BALANCING_DSP_BLOCKS to the specified value either for this partition or for the whole project. As a result, the compiler will assume the given number of DSP blocks exists for the given partition (or the project) and try to limit DSP block usage to this number. This overrides the usual method of determining the DSP block limit from the device information. The assignment MAX_BALANCING_DSP_BLOCKS can be set as a global project-wide assignment and/or on a particular partition for incremental compilation. It can be set as a project-wide option by clicking Maximum DSP Block Usage in the More Analysis and Synthesis Settings dialog box. It can be set on a partition using the Assignment Editor. The partition-specific assignment overrides the global assignment if any. If this assignment is set as a project-wide option, each partition that does not have a partition-specific assignment will limit the DSP block usage to the global value. This means that if there is no project-wide MAX_BALANCING_DSP_BLOCKS assignment, each partition that doesn't have this assignment will assume that it has all the DSP blocks in the device available to use. This can result in a no-fit error. As a result, it is recommended that you make partition-specific assignments when incremental compilation is in use.
