Speeding up the processor by a factor of 10 will increase the processing speed by a factor of 10 regardless of the efficiency of the algorithm.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The overall performance improvement depends not only on the processor speed but also on factors such as the efficiency of the algorithm, memory access times, and I/O operations. Amdahl's Law specifically addresses the limitations of performance improvements within these contexts.
