I'm not sure about clock speed (etc.), but I imagine the bottle next will be the bus speed between the processor and whatever little RAM it has... keep in mind, its used to dealing with compressed audio, something we rarely do in SC (and even then, only with FLAC)...
Find an old PowerPC (pre-G3), and I bet you would start to get a sense of the limitaions!

Point taken, but speaking from my own area of interest, I'd love to see the SC server on ipods/mobiles so that people could publish (for example) generative audio pieces that could be downloaded to yr device. How cool to have an ipod full of lovely generative sc works? I'd like to have that with me on a long train journey.
