I post while sometimes still asleep. Hmm, I get 14.22 years if I assume the doubling time is 1.5 years and current speed is 1.4 GHz. time(speed) = ln(speed/1.4GHz)*(T2/ln2), where T2=1.5 years. Now put in speed = 1000 GHz and you get 14.22 years. You could also sove two equations with two unknowns: x = time/1.5 years 1000 GHz = 1.4 GHz * 2^x here I get x=9.48 and so time = 9.48*1.5 years = 14.22 -S.
