    I always imagining you could get demos like this back to 1982, just to the moment when the c64 was finished. And then you just insert this demo into the drive and watch the faces of the original engineers. Would they believe that this is actually the system they just finished?

      For example, multiplication 8bit x 8bit takes 130 cycles, so about 7500 multiplications per second on C64.
      Any 8 core 4ghz processor with AVX512 support will do 8 x 4 x 64 = 2048 billion multiplications, so 273 million times faster.
      It would be funny to compare floating point performance, but that would be just ridiculous. Well, my above example is also pretty ridiculous also.
      But to be really ridiculous, comparing that 8bit x 8bit multiplications against GPU tensor cores which in the best models can do almost 150 teraflops with 32bit floats, and 600 teras with 8bit integers. Lets overclock 25% and call it 750 teras. So it's 100 billion times faster.
      But again, if someone would write 32bit float multiplication routine for C64, I would assume it's 20 times slower, lets call it 16 times slower (4x4 more bits), so it would be 450 multiplications per second, against 150 teraflops. 333 billion times faster.
