Wouldn't that cause the user to lose the session but be fine on re-
authentication (on the new worker)? In my case the user fails to login
repeatedly every time they try until I restart the app.
I am running with 100 workers, if anything I should probably reduce
that as I doubt simultaneous users ever peak beyond 50.
