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?
