Claim 10:
11. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the computer-readable storage medium including instructions that when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform operations comprising:
accessing a circuit design stored in memory;
receiving one or more indications of a user interaction with the circuit design, the circuit design comprising one or more design components and a plurality of segments, each segment comprising a region of the circuit design;
identifying a design component of the circuit design associated with the user interaction;
receiving, from a user, a request for behavioral analysis of a property of the design component of the circuit design;
in response to the request:
performing structural analysis of the circuit design to identify a segment of the plurality of segments that at least one affects the property or is affected by the property; and
determining the segment of the circuit design as being a design region of interest;

identifying a behavior within the segment for performing design at least one verification test;
compiling the segment without compiling a remainder of the circuit design; and
providing, for display to the user, one or more performance indicators corresponding to the behavior within the segment based on the segment as compiled.
