Cavity quantum electrodynamic schemes for quantum gates are amongst the earliest quantum computing proposals. Despite continued progress and the recent demonstration of photon blockade, there are still issues with optimal coupling and gate operation involving high-quality cavities. Here we show that dynamic cavity control allows for scalable cavity-QED based quantum gates using the full cavity bandwidth. This technique allows an order of magnitude increase in operating speed, and two orders reduction in cavity $Q$, over passive systems. Our method exploits Stark shift--based $Q$ switching, and is ideally suited to solid-state integrated optical approaches to quantum computing.
