What are the limitations of a single user operating system?

Single user operating system also has some disadvantages, such as:

• Tasks take longer to complete: As you know, many tasks are waiting for the CPU if no multiple tasks run at a time.
• Idle time is higher: If only one task is running and this task doesn’t require memory or I/O use, these devices remain idle.
