It's not the host, or the server that is causing the problem, the mod is.
Stop trying to make assumptions about that which you know nothing of.

Prior to installing this mod, the forum used 1-5 mysql processes constantly. SINCE using the mod (before removing it), the forum jumped from 1-5 mysql processes constantly to 50-70. There is no reason for this except the mod. Once the mod was disabled and removed? Back to 1-5 mysql processes.

This mod handles sql VERY poorly and causes issues. It's not the server's fault the mod is slow, it's the mod's fault. It's not the server's fault the mod handles queries slowly, it's the mod's fault. It's not the server's fault the mod takes forever to work, it's the mod's fault.

Stop trying to blame things which you know nothing of. The server wasn't under load at all, in fact, it was just fine. The mod makes entirely too many slow queries, end of story.
