Programming languages would be affected greatly. A language like Go would be more popular because of performance of both the compiler and the output of that compiler.

Rust would have a much harder time because its compilation is computationally very heavy and would take ages. Similarly C++ might be much slower to adopt new features because the compilers would just get too slow.

Dynamic languages like Python and Ruby may spend more effort on performance and JIT compilation rather than new features.

Or perhaps those hardware limitations would spark more innovation and breakthroughs.
