scaling check_nt checks on NSClient++/NC_net with passive checks?

I just picked up a client with over a thousand check_nt calls, and the
system is obviously lagging quite a bit.  I'm hoping that tweaking the
checks from active->passive is a quick fix to the lag.
When a check_nt plugin calls the agent running on Windows (e.g. NSClient++
or NC_net), does it by default call an active check?

And if so, is it possible to make it a passive check instead so that I can
not have to "fork and exec" a new Nagios process every time I need to check
something?

Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.
