Verilator 4.026 released.

Verilator Verilog HDL simulator is a high-performance system with lint, it does not simply convert Verilog HDL to C ++ or SystemC. Verilator not simply convert Verilog HDL to C ++ or SystemC. Verilator not only translation can also be optimized for the faster model with optional thread partitioning code is compiled, and these models are encapsulated in C ++ / SystemC / Python module.

After Verilog model compiled, even if the speed of the single thread executing on separate SystemC faster than 10 times, and the single thread execution speed 100 times faster than interpreted as Verilog Icarus Verilog simulator or the like. Multithreading may also make 2-10 times faster (on a total of interpretive simulator can improve 200-1000 times).
