Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] USRP2 and ISE 12

Well, it seems the aeMB guys are working on a new version of the the core. Maybe the new core will perform better.

I am not building the USRP2 FPGA, or have experience with ISE 12, but
the errors you have are all related to BRAM feeding the aeMB CPU -
more specifically RAM output -> Mux -> Adder -> FF, mostly with 7 to
10 layers of logic inbetween.

Good luck debugging that portion of the CPU.  Hopefully you can
achieve timing closure.
