    Explanation
    The basic limitation to batch processing is that there is always a processing delay. This means that there is a delay between submitting the batch of jobs and receiving the output. Unlike real-time processing, where results are immediately available, batch processing requires the jobs to be queued and processed in a sequential manner. This delay can impact time-sensitive tasks and may not be suitable for applications that require immediate processing and response.
