Paged Pool memory



I observe BSOD issue(kernel mode code).
UNEXPECTED_KERNEL_MODE_TRAP/EXCEPTION_DOUBLE_FAULT

possible reason:stack overflow.

when i analyze the dump file: i observed

********** Excessive Paged Pool Usage *****
PagedPool Usage: 40960 ( 163840 Kb)
PagedPool Maximum: 40960 ( 163840 Kb)

********** 138 pool allocations have failed **********

looks like system is running low on resource which have triggered an
exception. But why should stack overflow for this reason-> when an exception
is handled.
Is it possible for this limited paged pool memory to start some
unpredictable side effects like this:

Will Exception handling fail when there is limited paged pool resource with
a stack overflow ? i thought there is no connection between the two. But the
fact is whenever an exception is raised due to failure in memory allocation,i
am observing a stack overflow and Ultimately BSOD ...

Thanks,
Harish
