I have to say; VB 2.0 is a good piece of work.
I have run a forum since 1996. Beginning with Frontpage 95, then moving on to UBB (when it was free prior to v1) and have run UBB on a shared resource every since. We have over 11,000 members, over 200,000 posts, and get over 20,000 page views a day. UBB was hogging up so many resources that my ISP was turning my scripts off, not to mention the corruptions and membership data losses. After moving to a dedicated server, then moving again to a faster one, UBB proved too poor. This coming from a guy that has liked it for years (licensed copies for 4 years).
I tried: phpBB, phpBoard, WWWThreads (perl) only to find them too slow and too cpu intensive with my site's traffic. TOP: Load avg: 30~40.0 while under a load. Not to mention what was happening to my memory.
vBB v2.0.1 with all mgs and users imported: Load avg: .6~1.2 while under a load. (load: about 40 concurrent users)
Nice work guys.
