The node size numbers have been made up for decades. Even if process shrinks bottom out two or three node shrinks from now there will still be improvements in process, materials, thermals, and packaging to allow things like greater z-axis stacking. And there's a ton of room for targeted improvement in things like vector instructions. That's not to say that there isn't an enormous amount of improvement available in software. Projects like simdjson prove that there's a 2x or more improvement available for many high-performance use cases by migrating to vector instructions. https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson
