This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.

With frequencies kept constant for smaller machinery, speeds fall linearly for smaller machinery.
This is leading to a bad unter-utilization of nanoscale machinery capabilities.

Random example taking taking FFF 3D printing as a macroscale baseline for frequency.

  • 100mm/s like average 3D printer speeds at 10cm=100mm scale (1Hz)
  • => 1mm/s at 1mm scale => 1um/s at 1um scale
  • => 10nm/s at 10nm scale

That is even slower than diffusion based transport in bilogical nanosystems.
Proposed speeds for advanced diamondoid/gemstone-based nanosystems. In the book Nanosystems proposed where around 4mm/s at the smallest scales (~10nm).
And natural would be to (non-gradually) move back up to at least 100mm/s when moving back up to the the macroscale (10cm=100mm).

Same absolute speeds for smaller machinery seems to be a better baseline but also a bad one.
Still giving a design space point far away from even the beginning of any halfway decent optimization.
