Comment (by Christian Maaser <runningwithscythes@…>):

 I can confirm that MSVC adds {{{__chkstk}}} to any function requesting
 more than one page of memory regardless of "Basic Runtime Checks",
 "Disable Security Checks", or other compiler flags, even in fully
 optimized release builds. It is a Windows NT platform requirement to do
 these checks. See [https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/100775]
