Yes, a serious limitation is their poor bandwidth to RAM. In an Intel 
box a lot of effort usually goes into making that high bandwidth. 
Servers also support ECC RAM, and even consumer boxes frequently allow 
installing matched pairs of RAM sticks for more bandwidth.

Arm machines can do all of this, but a Raspberry Pi does not do any of it.
