The MacBook Air I just bought (the fastest I could buy) runs my code 7/4 faster than the one I bought in 2010.

MacBookAir is vintage Mar. 2015, should have waited for the new form-factor MacBookPro with Skylake i7 >2x faster than yours.

at which point the software world will have to say 'come back,

I really need to upgrade my 2011 MacBook but nothing better available... they're stuck at 16gb ram and incremental cpu improvements..

Mr. Moore worked on the battery life instead... I bet at least doubled there.
