I assume you have the normal back diode across the coil for clamping the ringing voltage.
If you care about the life of the relay (and how well it "opens"),
a better approach is to add a zener rated at the coil voltage in
series with that diode. The diode, by itself, delays opening of
the contacts and leads to more opportunities for arcing. The
zener speeds up this transition.
