Optical computing fascinates me. Imagine an intelligence based on that.

There was an argument somewhere that biological computational substrate density (with respect to round trip signal speed) was critical.

If you've only had time for 3 thoughts (to simplify) since evolving intelligence... a civilization of your beings probably isn't doing too well.
