You might think this would lead to much faster number-crunching over a regular computer and you'd be right, to a point.
A quantum computer can perform any operation a classical computer can, but its exponential speedups only take effect
So, in practice, classical computers will probably be faster and more practical than quantum computers for day-to-day operations

Beyond that, shrinking transistors to the bitter end may not do much to make computers faster. Long commute time The main roadblock to faster computers is not flagging processor speed,
but a memory problem, Shulaker said. Big data analysis requires the computer to draw some tiny piece of data from some previously unknown spot in truly staggering troves of data.
Then the computer must shuttle that information via an electrical signal back and forth across the (relatively) vast inches of wire between the computer's memory (typically a hard drive)
and the processors, facing the speed bump of electrical resistance along the entire path.""If you try to run that in your computer,
you would spend over 96 percent of the time just being idle, doing absolutely nothing,"Shulaker said."
