You posted awhile back you host this on your own server. But does that machine have 'server specs'? I mean a decent server needs basically only 3 things:
A crap load of memory (the more it can cache the db etc)
Multicore cpu (the more clients it can serve at once).
Broadband symmetrical connection (you can't host a site for hundreds of clients while using a upload of e.g. 500kbs)
Also the server' os and forum platform have things to say but hardware wise these are the three things to check.
