Seems like a bug/feature of Windows 7/Vista (or a bug/feature of Windows
socket subsystem) - something in background/foreground process scheduling or
a memory management issue. Nevertheless it is interesting to know the Asio
author's point of view.

It will be more clear if the topic starter rewrites his (simple) examples to
use WinSock directly rather than through the Asio (use the same time
measurement - by means of boost::posix_time). I think that such rewritten
examples will show the same behavior.
