If you look at single-threaded processor benchmarks, CPUs are still getting faster. The new i9's are 20% faster than the next-fastest chips. It's definitely not doubling every two years but it's still noticeable.

Can you explain how to square that with the link saying compressing data hasn't gotten any faster since 2005?
