Description
I'm testing reconnection of the websocket client. After receiving OnClose event, my program calls the following code to reconnect (not in the OnClose thread):
websocket.Close();
websocket.Connect();
After about 10 failure and retries, I got exception "A series of reconnecting has failed". The websocket-sharp code does have the logic of _maxRetryCountForConnect=10. Anyone knows why this limitation is needed at all? And what is the best practice to reconnect except create a new WebSocket object?

Research direction
Start by tracing the websocket.Close() and websocket.Connect() entry points and the _maxRetryCountForConnect setting mentioned in the issue. Determine how repeated reconnect attempts reach the failure exception and what behavior the existing implementation defines as complete; the issue does not name a file or test to run.
