.. _REPLICATE_ROMS:

REPLICATE_ROMS
-------------

This parameter replicates read-only memories (ROMs) to instantiate them in each 
of its accessing module. When the accessing modules execute concurrently, 
replicate the ROMs can reduce memory contention and increase performance, at the 
expense of more memory usage. It can also help to reduce LUTs, by reducing the 
arbitration/multiplexing logic that is required when the ROM is shared.
