Am I missing something?
P=/=NP doesn't mean that NP problems require "immense computational
power" beyond what could biochemistry can provide. Being NP is just
a statement about how a problem scales with size of the input. But
for some given finite size it might be quickly solved.
if the size is not to big.
If the size is very big, and the polynomial has a high degree, we
still can't handle it, even with the helps of the parallel states.
