Why do forums limit searches?

I've noticed that many forums (including this one) limit searches and just wondered why.

Does searching use up a lot of resources or something?

Sometimes the limit is only for 5 seconds or so between searches, so I wouldn't have thought that this would make much difference

Cheers.
