P Vs. NP isn't just of consequence to cryptography. It's extremely relevant to scheduling and resource use optimization. E.g. FedEx want to deliver parcels as fast as possible. Factories should be laid out optimally, chips should have their internal wiring minimized etc. Those all have NP problems underneath them and improvements to computing in that category would have huge economic benefits (although it ain't gonna happen)
