TBH, I'm not sure why it is slow (in testing most of the time 7-8 out of 10 times it worked fine) but I think it could have something to do with the subquery. However, I don't know for sure. However, I am caching templates, so that should speed things up on the ticker.
EDIT: in the control panel, go to vbulletin options => vB News Ticker => Ticker Height => change the number from 50 to 10. That should fix it.
