Workers don't run Docker containers intentionally. The goal with Workers is to run with a lower memory overhead (~3 MB) and lower startup time (~5 ms) than you can get with full container isolation. This allows your Worker to run affordably in 150+ locations around the world. In many ways it's the ultimate destination for serverless, running code in a multitenant process where all you manage is your code.
