I have a quick question about Worker configuration. I see there is a `--limit` option. What does this do in practice? I have used the concurrency limit on work pools before, but I'm wondering what this achieves in addition to that.

hey, a this would keep the worker from submitting and monitoring more then `--limit` runs at a time.

you could have a work pool with concurrency limit 10 and if your worker had --limit 5, only 5 runs at a time would get picked up by that individual worker

so it's a kind of concurrency limit on the worker itself

where the work pool can also enforce a broader concurrency limit
