Some LabVIEW VIs and functions consume a significant amount of space on an FPGA. If you want to optimize an FPGA VI, consider avoiding the following VIs and functions, if possible:

• Quotient & Remainder

  Note  If you use the Quotient & Remainder function to divide by a power of two, consider using the Scale by Power of 2 function instead and wire a constant to the n input. Constants consume less space than controls on the FPGA.

• Rotate 1D Array
• Scale by Power of 2

  Note  If you wire a constant to the n input of the Scale by Power of 2 function, the function does not use any space on the FPGA.
