 well, the difference with the perl program is perhaps here

J>  select(SOCK); 
J>  $|=1; 
J>  select(STDOUT);

 it force a flush after every print, try to add

   t.sync = true

svg% ri IO#sync=
--------------------------------------------------------------- IO#sync=
     ios.sync = aBoolean -> aBoolean
------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Sets the ``sync mode'' to true or false. When sync mode is true,
     all output is immediately flushed to the underlying operating
     system and is not buffered internally. Returns the new state.
        f = File.new("testfile")
        f.sync = true

svg% 

p.s.: you use 1.6.8, no ?
