Then why don't you off-load the processing to two scripts:

1) One that accept and logs the UDP connection (to make sure it's 
NOT full...)

2) One to process the strings.

I am NOT saying that one script couldn't handle it, but maybe it is 
trying to juggle two many conditions before losing data or dropping 
a connection before it is completed?
