In my experience rPi was terrible as a local server. The micro SD cards would fail regularly and I just got tired of handling backups and restoring them. I switched to a set up box type tiny PC and it's stable as rock in comparison. Old laptop would be even better for that, shame I didn't think about it.
Not all SD cards are created the same, but also make sure you add "temp to RAM" setup so the constant tmp writes are not burning out the card.
Net boot ftw, no sd card necessary.
