I wasn't aware quantum computers had actually been invented yet. They are still theoretical devices.
Quantum computation as been explored but as yet we don't have a computer capable of executing the quantum algorithms.
That aside, all I'm saying is that exponential growth has a limit. That growth could be measured in MIPS or in algorithm performance, it doesn't really matter, but I don't think that growth will continue exponentially.

They're in their infancy, but we've already had a quantum computer factor 15. http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/computing/hardware/chip-does-part-of-codecracking-quantum-algorithm http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/computing/hardware/chip-does-pa...
- SimonPStevens 16y agoInteresting. Thanks. Perhaps I take it back then. Maybe we do have a algorithm capable quantum computer.
