The default stack is 1 MB.
You can change the size with a "module definition file"
The .DEF file is added to the linker command.
These are the values I use in a service program:

EXETYPE        WINDOWS

CODE           MOVEABLE

DATA           MULTIPLE

HEAPSIZE       131072,131072

STACKSIZE      131072,131072

Also see the /H, /Hc, /S and /Sc linker switches.
(I don't use these, just the def file)
