Change it to:

set to_pd [socket 127.0.0.1 40000]
proc pd_send {all} {
  global to_pd
  puts $to_pd $all
  flush $to_pd
}
proc vu {x} {
  pd_send "$x;"
}

Because the way you do it with one open per message and no close, you are
using waaaaay too many sockets at once, which is causing a
denial-of-service attack on [netreceive].
