Virtuoso Custom Placer (VCP) question

    I've been exploring the Virtuoso Custom Placer and I'm seeing
    different placement results from the same initial conditions. This
    leads me to believe that the VCP is using something analagous to a
    random number generator in the placement algorithm. Is this true? If
    so, is there a way I can run VCP in a "deterministic" mode, e.g.,
    setting a seed for a random number generator, so I get repeatable
    placements?

    Thanks,
    Matt
