Did the developers of pcsx2 in the early days know that a quad core CPU with AVX instructions would even exist several years later, and then be practically useful for the emulator? The answer is no.
It shouldn't be impossible. There are games that run full speed right now, people who have seen this happen enough should know if the requirements are going to be more or less as emulators progress. Or at least give an estimate, I mean I don't want a 100% answer just an estimate.
