Hallo,

That's easy: You never stop the [until], so it will try to run
forever! 

[until] needs to be stopped by a bang in its right inlet.
Alternatively you can start the [until] by sending a float instead of
a bang to its left inlet. Then it will send only as many bangs, as the
float specifies. Sending a bang to [until] always is a bit dangerous,
as little errors in a patch can get in the way of the "stop"-bang to
until, and then you have a stack overflow. However in your case, you
didn't even try to stop the [until] ;)

Ciao
