That is because you are not taking into account that TIdUDPServer runs its
own threads internally for receiving packets.  So you are reading from the
same socket in multiple threads simultaneously.  Some data is going to be
received in your thread, and some data in TIdUDPServer's threads.

Whatever you do to the thread that owns the TIdUDPServer instance will not
apply to the threads that TIdUDPServer creates internally.

If you are going to do that in your own thread, then TIdUDPServer is the
wrong component to use.  Otherwise, you should let TIdUDPServer handle the
threading for you, and you can simply adjust its priority as needed.
