Bremermann's limit is actually really cool, it's a theoretical maximum computation rate per kilogram. Basically the upper limit for a computer you could build that weighs 1 kg.

If the entire galaxy where a computer running at that speed, it would take beyond the heat death of the universe to crack 512 bit encryption by brute forcing the key.
