I did some stuff with the (unvisible) nets like VDD and GND for my symbols and got out of this error. And yes, there is no recursivity inside. The tool just ate all the memory while renaming ports and nets which are instantiated many times.. IMHO Currently I try to layout my board and have seen some strange shortages between nets I did not understand jet. So maybe I came up with similar problems today evening while investigate the netlist stuff again. Thanks for your help so far! Regards, Hagen.
