What is the logical gate speed of a photonic quantum computer? says
In a simple world the speed of a photonic quantum computer would just be the speed at which it’s possible to make small (fixed sized) entangled states. GHz rates for such are plausible and correspond to the much slower MHz code-cycle rates of a superconducting machine.
But it doesn't mention just how much MHz the Superconducting clock rates are.
Which classical processor would be on par with the QPU mentioned in, for example, How to factor 2048 bit RSA integers in 8 hours using 20 million noisy qubits when it comes to clock speed? Would it be the Pentium II (233 MHz to 450 MHz)? The i486 (16 MHz to 100 MHz)?
