boost async read/write fails with "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service"

I am (seemingly) randomly getting the error:

"Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service"

When using the boost::asio::async_read_until or boost::asio::async_write with a serial port.

Having the serial port declared as:

boost::asio::serial_port mSerialPort;

Following this error, I try to

try
{
    mSerialPort.cancel();
    mSerialPort.close();
}
catch(boost::system::system_error error)
{
    ;
}

Where one of them (not certain yet which) hangs and never returns, not even throwing an exception.

In general, what does this error mean ?

Has anybody encountered this problem ? Any direction in particular I should investigate ?

EDIT:

The serial port in question uses a USB emulator.

In regards to this other SO Question, specially the comment from Hans Passant, is it possible that this error is linked to the device driver ? I use the same code with another hardware component and never got this behavior.

EDIT 2:

When searching on the web for this particular error message, often it is recommended to increase the paged pool memory as described here:

Any sense in doing this in my case ?
