New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Could you estimate the total number of clock cycles ever run?

Ask HN: Could you estimate the total number of clock cycles ever run?

I was recently reading about Graham's Number (https://ift.tt/1qSE1vs) 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?
