Why modern software is slow

Definitely correct me if I’m wrong, but games have thousands of little cores generating those frames every 17ms, but websites usually rely on a big slow cpu to direct the workflow of tiny packets from some far off network, no?

Yeah, but the list of things to render still has to be presented to the GPU in less than that time, from the CPU (draw call).

Games also rely on the CPU to do simulation and feed the GPU. And Browsers also use the GPU for the actual rendering where possible.
