Quantum computing is a promising technology for highperformance computation, but requires mature toolflows that can map large-scale quantum programs onto targeted hardware. In this paper, we present a scalable compiler for largescale quantum applications, and show the opportunities for reducing compilation and analysis time, as well as output code size. We discuss the similarities and differences between compiling for a quantum computer as opposed to a classical computer, and present a
