Background
Henri Bergson worked out that the rate of vibration needed to run the functions of the universe was extremely high, so high the rate is somewhat inconceivable to us.
A description of the experience
Henri Bergson – Matter and Memory
Let us imagine, in a word, a consciousness which should watch the succession of 400 billions of vibrations, each instantaneous, and each separated from the next only by the one five hundredth of a second necessary to distinguish them. A very simple calculation shows that more than 25,000 years would elapse before the conclusion of the operation.
