Answer 1

it’s proportional to complexity of calculations. some examples might be:

– fluid dynamics

– seismic phenomena

– weather simulation/prediction

– protein modeling/decoding

– different kind of models, like : ecosystems, universe, and running simulations in which these evolve at a quicker rate than normally would.
