  OK. I get the idea. One more question regarding the various clocks:
  how widespread are they *in* the design? I mean, making a whole
  H-Tree across *all* the area if only a very specific part is
  concerned would be a waste. We may want to either create a
  sub-block with it's localized H-Tree, or develop a specific
  ad-hoc buffering version for one clock.
