What is the difference between a worker and a native worker?

I still don't really understand the difference between these two worker types and the documentation doesn't seem to really go into it other than to mention the default tags for each.

Is it the case that a regular worker runs in a container but a native worker runs on the host? Or something else?

As we're preparing for a new Windmill sandbox SDK, we took the opportunity **to open-source NSJAIL sandboxing** and make it available in CE and easier to set. In 1.634.0, just set nsjail to benefit from the tightest security and isolation per job. It's constraining so no need to use it unless you need but now you won't be restricted in security for CE if you need to.
