I remember 20 years ago already seeing 3ghz CPUs, isn't technology supposed to improve fast?

And it has. The phone you have is faster than the 3GHz chip back then. A phone powered by a battery. And faster by like 20 times.

My dad had one of the first consumer 3GHz chips available. By the time I inherited it in 2009 it was completely outclassed by a <2GHz dual-core laptop.
