You can enable regular pings of connected relays with the `enablePing` option. This will set up a heartbeat that closes the websocket if it doesn't receive a response in time. Some platforms, like Node.js, don't report websocket disconnections due to network issues, and enabling this can increase the reliability of the `onclose` event.
