   Sorry, but that is simply not supported by the numbers from 40 years ago, in the case of general purpose programming.

   It was fast *enough* for many purposes, and for certain special purposes, and okay maybe sometimes on a Lisp Machine, but all of which is a different question than general purpose on common CPUs.
