Unless you are simulating quantum effects, these sorts of simulations are unlikely to be faster on a quantum computer. Also, attempts at using the Ising model for general-purpose optimization have found themselves somewhat limited in application.

For people doing drug discovery and quantum physics/chemistry research, they will see an exponential speedup from quantum computing, but I think you're overstating how applicable this technology is.
