Why does the search engine make you wait between searches?

It's annoying, as I am highly unintelligent and need at least two tries to get my search right.

Probably to reduce the load on the system. Search uses a lot of processor and disk. So they enforce a wait to keep a lid on the maximum number of searches per second from the whole board.
Remember its not just you searching...

I figured that, but no other site I've used does that.

BTW- I did a double take on your handle, Trevor D, as my name is Trevor D. Bajus.

I thought my Fight Club alter-ego was answering me for a second.
