Computation refers to the processing that can be done in a unit time.
Using processors in parallel can increase computational power (as can waiting for a year or two― a reasonable rule of thumb is that computational speed doubles every 18 months!).
We measure computation in millions of instructions per second (MIPS).
We assume here that every instruction takes the same time to execute, which is more or less true for reduced-instruction-set (RISC) processors.
In mid-1996, even low-end Intel 80486-class microprocessors processed about 30 million instructions per second.
At the high end, Alpha processors from Digital Equipment processed more than 500 million instructions per second.
With operating-system overheads, however, only about 80% of this rate is available to applications.
お礼
ありがとうございます 可算名詞と考えるのが妥当ですよね なんか辞書をめくっててすっきりしなかったので、ご回答が参考になりました >fewer を使うべきところを less で置き換える こういう習慣のようなものは難しいです
