Re: [Gtkwave-users] Problem opening large GHW files

[<by...@nc...>]

The immediate workaround I'd suggest if possible is to dump the file instead as VCD then see if the VCD file loads.  GHW loads the entire file in memory.  Other formats don't.

If the VCD file does not load, run vcd2fst on the converted file.

If you need to look at all signals across your time range, pass the start time value to the --start command line flag in gtkwave when loading the FST file.  That option isn't available for VCD or GHW.  It sounds like it could be useful for a future release.
