### Expected Behavior
Since adding reds to OpenWebUI I have consistently had OpenWebUI say there are users online, even hours later when there are no users online.
Point: I took down my instance for a couple days, spun it back up and it said there were four users online instantly.
Well, this happened also after enabling web sockets.
```
- ENABLE_WEBSOCKET_SUPPORT=true
