Currency Units

We are used to hearing of X dollars to the pound, or Y Euros to the pound. Is there a currency with a higher unit value than the pound Sterling? I am only aware of the Cypriot Pound.

How can Google search apparantly billions of web pages for a single reference in a fraction of a second, when it can take my computer a couple of minutes to find a specific file on its own hard drive?
