Is there any difference between using LocalDask vs Dask without providing a cluster? Do they do the same thing under the hood?

I think mostly the same if you use LocalDask with processes, but different because LocalDask uses

dask

and Dask uses

distributed

Gotcha, that helps, thank you. Do you know if there is much performance difference between the two?

I dont know on time, but I think Dask LocalCluster is more stable

Awesome, thanks!
