You've been able to do this sort of thing for some time, at least simulated, which provides the same results:

Same results but faster! The IBM version runs slower than a classical simulation of it, making IBM's project a tech demo toy. (Obviously. If it were actually efficient, they would charge a fortune to use it.)

What factors contribute to the performance disparity, and where could efficiencies be found?
