Actually, a whole brain emulation would, at least for some generations after the first working model, run slower, not faster, than an organic brain. Bear in mind that without whole brain emulation (or nanomedicine sufficiently advanced to confer biological immortality, which is an even considerably more difficult engineering challenge), you're going to die. So are all your family and friends. Everyone you ever cared about. Being confused about the difference between Hollywood and real life is not harmless.
