Forum is still super slow is what I mean.
Update - I installed PHP7 with opCache and that helped a bit, it reduced around 6 seconds the load time but is still taking around 14 secs.
I installed Comet and loads super fast for non-logged in users, I haven't bought the PRO version to enable it for logged-in users yet but as you explained wpforo should work well without a cache plugin.
I rebuilt the indexes in mysql and same result, so I debugged wpforo's code, particularly "self::$cache['forum']" and is always empty (not sure if this helps).
Thanks.

Then it seems that your problem is wpForo specific. Sorry i'm out of ideas.
Hi Souza,
We can login and check your website issue if you could provide with admin access. If so please send admin login details to support[at]gvectors.com email address and please describe the problem don't just send a link to this topic.
We finally have the forum working acceptable with 290k posts. Looks like it was a combination between wpforo and WordPress itself, we took our git project and replace the project's files with a fresh one from our repo.
I suspect the cache was causing WP not to work properly, we set up a new environment with the same database and it was working much better than our production environment, so we made the same with prod's server.
We also upgraded to 1.2.0 and that helped a bit more. Although is fast enough, I'm sure it can get better, but that is being covered in a new topic https://wpforo.com/community/general-discussions/performance/
Thanks everybody for the help.
My issues are solved too, my database tables were not migrated right. My site is fast now and the forum (286K posts) very acceptable at approx. 3 seconds to load as a max. I use WP Performance Score Booster instead of the other cache plugins and it seems to work like a charm and not conflict with WPforo at all. I haven't even switched to PHP7 yet because I have some SMF forums that don't support it yet, but it can only get better.
Thanks to the WPforo support, you guys are great.
