You didn't say, but if you're on a shared server then 99.9% of the slowdowns you see are caused by server problems, not vb. You could disable all mods and turn the forum off completely and it won't affect the server load you see in cpanel because you aren't causing it.
I really don't see how you could have lost your database. Don't you download a backup daily? At most you might lose a day or two, not all of it.
