There is a problem between VS2012's debug mode and our memory leak finder. The VC2012 runtime allocates way too many memory blocks in std::vector constructors. This causes the chunk generator and generally the chunkmap to be very slow - as you can see from your performance stats, not even 5 chunks per second generated, while on a regular machine we get as many as 40 chunks per second generated in the debug mode.
For this reason, and a few others, we use VS2008 for the development. That also means that you can't commit the changes in the project file. Therefore, I recommend you also get MSVC 2008, the Express version should still be available as a free download from MS.
I have added a link to the VC2008 Express iso image to the wiki. It seems this piece of software is rather difficult to procure nowadays
