The block RAM enable optimization improves timing on critical paths involving power-optimized block RAMs.

Pre-placement block RAM power optimization restructures the logic driving block RAM read and write enable inputs, to reduce dynamic power consumption. After placement, the restructured logic might become timing-critical. The block RAM enable optimization reverses the enable-logic optimization to improve the slack on the critical enable-logic paths.
