Websocket concurrent connection limit
Is there a concurrent connection limit for websocket connections open on free tier with cloudflare proxy?

There is no (exact) limit for websockets. On https://developers.cloudflare.com/network/websockets/ you can read more about it. According to that page, you're allowed a 'low' volume of concurrent connections on the free plan.
What happens if my site exceeds the number of concurrent WebSockets connections that Cloudflare expects? Immediately, nothing. Cloudflare will allow occasional spikes in usage beyond our guidelines and we will not apply unnecessary limits. Repeated spikes or high continued usage will prompt a dialogue. Cloudflare will reach out to learn more about your application. We will not impose limit errors for any application without contacting the customer unless we suspect that abuse or an attack is involved. Customers whose usage claims a disproportionate percentage of resources for their current plan level may be asked to upgrade to the plan level that matches their needs.
