A bigger mainframe would come out every year or you would build a cluster of computers (supercomputers) to process more data. Personal computers increased performance every year since the 70’s too.

What that means today, your faster computer can generate inefficient code faster. Faster computers don’t automatically make all the programs running on them more efficient it just means Bad code runs faster.

Looks like there are a few of us that were in the IT area during our working lives
