I just wanted to ask if this behavior is normal. I restarted realtime 2 days ago and it already reached a connection count of over 11k. The count only goes up.

If I run this docker compose exec appwrite-realtime netstat -an | grep ESTABLISHED | wc -l the result hovers around 250

TL;DR
The connection count in Realtime is steadily increasing, even after a server restart, reaching over 11,000. However, running the provided command shows only around 250 established connections. This could indicate a potential issue with counting or monitoring the connections.
