It's actually impossible to do a direct comparison of flops to what I guess we'd call quflops, as the algorithms are not directly comparable. Quantum computers are good at quantum algorithms that can do operations in a single time step that a classical computer couldn't, likewise, to simulate a classical computer on a quantum computer would be very resource intensive.
