When talking about about computation the argument is usually presented as exponential increase in processor computational power (FLOPs/MIPs) per unit cost not processor speed. Even though processor speed peaked recently computational power per unit cost has continued to increase. Economics drives an increase in computation per unit cost not processor speed. How the increase in accomplished is irrelevant. The current peak in processor speed may also be temporary as you can see with a quick google search. http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS240&=&q=THz+processors&aq=f&oq=&aqi= http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1...
