I was recently reading about Graham's Number (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham%27s_number) and was pondering large numbers (as much as one can) and I was thinking: would it be possible to estimate the total/cumulative number of clock cycles run on every single microprocessor ever made? Would it be possible to mathematically describe how that number is changing along a time axis?
