It's not really the speed of the computer that's the problem.
It's the fact that humans have been publishing books for centuries upon centuries before we even harnessed electricity. Most probably never even got recorded to online databases, much less actually uploaded in full. That's not including the texts that were lost to war, natural disaster, moronic political movements burning them, etc. We actually have historical records of some lost medical texts, among various others from all over the world. Hua Tuo had some of his medical work straight up burned when he tried to release it before his execution.
It's less being able to quickly access things, so much as not having access at all to them. We could get stricter with our definition of "published", but I'd still suspect there'd be missing works.
That said, it's comics. I'm mostly joking around.
Aside from The Library being multiversal even when in a weakened state. That's just fact.
