I think the opposite direction is actually more telling. Developers tolerate bloat and BS up to the level of seconds.

So there is plenty of computation being done that only requires milli or microseconds, but due to development practices now stretches just out into the annoying time frame.

(Prime example: the growth of web pages to match increases in processing, RAM, and internet speeds, means that the web is actually slower to use these days.)
