Julia, Synopsys has two almost unassailable market advantages with HSPICE: *A lot of models are supplied only as encrypted HSPICE models. If you don't have HSPICE you can't play. *HSPICE is used for silicon sign-off with a number of fabs. If either of the above issues are material to you, then the technical merits of one simulator versus another are moot.
