And you said that changing the recv buffer size (2**16) made no 
difference? How about specifying Socket::MSG_TRUNC in the flags to see 
if the whole datagram didn't make it (man recv(2)/ recvfrom(2))? Or 
maybe try reading the header (I read it is four bytes) to find the data 
length and then a subsequent read for the rest based on that? Sorry, I'm 
clutching at straws, but I'm curious to see what you find. I found some 
old forum posts with people discussing non-blocking UPD sockets in Ruby, 
but they gave up and used event machine before the issue was resolved 
which is a shame.

Looking at s_recvfrom and s_recvfrom_nonblock in socket.c the main 
difference appears to be that the non-block version sets MSG_DONTWAIT if 
defined, and then uses  rb_io_set_nonblock from io.c to do the fcntl 
shuffle. The blocking version has a retry loop which sits in 
rb_io_wait_readable on the socket fd. I would definitely use the 
nonblock one when fiddling around just to rule out ever getting into 
that rb_io_wait_readable which is just another select.

For what it is worth, neither of those functions appear to have changed 
between ruby-1.8.6-p420, ruby-1.8.7-p352, and ruby-1.9.3-p0.

Sam
