Websocket exhausted on Azure App Service Standard S1 plan?

We've updated from Basic to Standard for our two instance App Service apps, and I'm getting this warning:

Websocket exhasted on Standard Azure plan

Based on this the Standard plan should have unlimited websocket?

What is the meaning of this?

Unlimited in this case means that there is not going to be any artificial throttling of your site. However, a physical machine is only capable of handling a certain number of sockets before it runs out, and at the end of the day every instance of your site is running on just that, a physical machine.

If you're running out of sockets either try scaling out your site to multiple instances or better yet take a closer look at your application to see if there are ways to reduce the number of sockets simultaneously in use.
