$selectFD = new IO::Select($rec[$RXThreadNumber], undef, undef, 1);
The immediate problem I can see with your code is the above call. The constructor for IO::Select doesn't take the same parameters as the select function. It takes a list of handles. Check the IO::Select pod for more information. This means that your timeout isn't begin set properly, and you experience the symptoms of this.
$|++; # flush the buffer apparently...
If you want to know more about how this works, you need to read the perlvar pod. If you use the IO::Handle classes for your filehandles you can use their autoflush method to make this nicer.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
