Websocket server with devtool will auto disconnect

[lishengzxc]

When I use devtool, my websocket server will auto disconnect to client. if I use node app.js, it will be right.

i am using devtool with my websocket server and have no trouble i am running it with:

devtool app.js --watch --break

I'm experiencing the same issue with devtool index.js --watch. I'm using express and socket.io with the following setup:

const http = require('http');
const express = require('express');

const app = express();
const server = http.createServer(app);
const io = require('socket.io')(server);

After fiddling with the cli options I found that the websockets work normally when using --no-node-timers. I noticed that the first websocket connection succeeds to send a couple of frames back and forth (<1 second) but quickly stalls, and then constantly timesout at 10s, so I'd suspect some race condition taking place.
