Altera Quartus II Settings File - Manual (Page 56)

AUTO_RESOURCE_SHARING
Allows the Compiler to share hardware resources among many similar, but mutually exclusive, operations
in your HDL source code. If you enable this option, the Compiler will merge compatible addition,
subtraction, and multiplication operations. By merging operations, this may reduce the area required by
your design. Because resource sharing introduces extra muxing and control logic on each shared resource,
it may negatively impact the final fmax of your design.
