Can you try installing [capstone](https://www.capstone-engine.org/) (e.g. `libcapstone-dev` in Ubuntu/Debian) and then re-run `configure`, `make clean`, `make`, `make install`? That should print a disassembly dump of the instruction that causes the...

I also improved the crash reporting a bit so it prints a hexdump if capstone is not installed.

Thanks. I think I might have fixed it - could you test again with the latest master branch? I'm a bit confused why I can't reproduce this though. Can you...

Using the default 16 MB heap size the out-of-memory error is triggered by line 2419 in UVVM's `rand_pkg.vhd`: ```vhdl priv_cyclic_list := new t_cyclic_list(min_value to max_value); ``` With your test `min_value`...

It just reserves the memory and will only allocate when those pages get touched. But the GC only kicks in once the limit is reached, so if you run with...

There was a bug with handling heap sizes >= 2GB. I've fixed that now, could you try again? I tested with a 6GB heap on a Windows VM without issue.

I'm not opposed to adding SDF in general, but I do think it would be better if it did something useful. E.g. ModelSim has a `-sdf` option to set VITAL...

@avelure mentioned they do VHDL gate-level simulation with back-annotation using the output from the Microsemi toolchain. It would be good if we could get that flow working here.

I tried this a few times in the past but never managed to get something that worked well. Maybe there could be a check that's hooked into `make install`.
