OK, I'm wrong again
I'm talking about clock speed and caches just as you are.

And whether you like to admit it or not, you haven't brought up a single valid point to support your erroneous statement or refuted my points. Caches have been improved and tweaked and enlarged in step with clock speeds all the way back from Pentium1 days.
