- Grosch's_law abstract "Grosch's law is the following observation of computer performance attributed to Herb Grosch in 1965:There is a fundamental rule, which I modestly call Grosch's law, giving added economy only as the square root of the increase in speed -- that is, to do a calculation 10 times as cheaply you must do it 100 times as fast.This adage is more commonly stated asComputer performance increases as the square of the cost. If computer A costs twice as much as computer B, you should expect computer A to be four times as fast as computer B.Two years before Grosch's statement, Seymour Cray was quoted in Business Week (August 1963) expressing this very same thought:Computers should obey a square law -- when the price doubles, you should get at least four times as much speed.The law can also be interpreted as meaning that computers present economies of scale: the more costly is the computer, the price-performance ratio linearly becomes better. This implies that low-cost computers cannot compete in the market. In the end, a few huge machines would serve all the world's computing needs. Supposedly, this might have prompted Thomas J. Watson to predict at the time a total global computing market of five mainframe computers.".
