It already has.

Clock speeds and chip sizes haven't really grown much in a decade
IIRC we are stuck at around 2nm and 4-6GHz.

The problem is that the smaller you go - which allows better speeds or 
lower currents  and smaller paths in the silicon - the nearer you get to 
the fact that current is discrete electrons and therefore 'lumpy 
analogue' I.e noise starts  to approach logic levels.

Any improvements are coming from better cacheing and multiple cores.

And offloading 3D crap to power hungry  GPUs.
