The forum topic view always takes a long time to finish. I tested the page load time via chrome web developer tools. Below data is copied from the tool (I tested 10 times)
- wordpress homepage: Finish: 5.02s | DOMContentLoaded 3.56s | Load 3.73s
- SP homepage: Finish: 5.19s | DOMContentLoaded 3.72s | Load 3.98s
- SP forum page: Finish: 9.56s | DOMContentLoaded 4.92s | Load 5.42s
- SP topic view: Finish: 43.92s | DOMContentLoaded 43.07s | Load 43.38s
From the data we can see that the DOMContentLoaded costed too much time in topic view. I don't know much about the DOMContentLoaded thing ... can you give me some tips/solution for this issue? Thanks in advance.
I'm stuck on the performance issue...let me know if you need more info. My server is Xeon E5-2630 2.3GHz, 4GB Memory, HHD,only installed WP and it's necessary components.

4GB is pretty low for servers (we run 32MB)... that said 43 seconds is long... it will take longer than any standard wp page since the forum is a whole lot more than static content of typical wp page... but again, 43 seconds too long...
could be many things... really need to look at the http requests and see what is slowing it down...
a couple things you could look at
o forum - options - global settings, are you using the combined js and css caches? will increase performance
o are you using gravatars? if so are you using our gravatar cache plugin??
o assume you are running 5.7.2?
o how many posts per page are you showing in topic view? forum - options - general display settings... less posts will be faster (but you dont need to really small)...
o what SP plugins are active? are you actively using them all? (though would like be more consistent from forum view to view)
what is your site? we could take a look as something may jump out...

Please see my answers inline.
o forum – options – global settings, are you using the combined js and css caches? will increase performance
[Yao] No, I'm not using them. I enable it now, but still the same performance...
o are you using gravatars? if so are you using our gravatar cache plugin??
[Yao] No, I'm not using gravatars.
o assume you are running 5.7.2?
[Yao] centos7, apache 2.4.6, php 5.4.16, mariadb 5.5.47, WP 4.5.4, SP latest version.
o how many posts per page are you showing in topic view? forum – options – general display settings… less posts will be faster (but you dont need to really small)…
[Yao] 12 topics per page, and 20 posts per page
o what SP plugins are active? are you actively using them all? (though would like be more consistent from forum view to view)
[Yao] Active: BuddyPress, Editor TinyMCE, File Uploader, myCred, Topic ID permalink

what is your site? we could take a look as something may jump out…

as soon as the first request finished, the rest of page can be loaded in a very short time. the page seems "stuck" during the first request ..

To load a page, only the topic view costs so much time - 30 more seconds...
The forum view, topic list view, WP post view, all cost little time - 3 to 5 seconds.

Hello,
I'm still working on it now...
It looks like that the "Time To First Byte (TTFB)" is too long while loading a topic view page. But the TTFB is kind of "black box" so I can't look into it...
Do you have any suggestion on this issue? I don't know what I can do now ...as soon as this performance issue resolved, I can put the new SP forum online.
Really appreciate your help and looking for the response ...

Apologies for the delay
I am on a short vacation and I only have my phone to look at things until I get back to my hotel. It's not that easy to see the image you uploaded to be able to read it.
@mr-papa will be along a little later and hopefully he will be able to.

Update,
I deactivated all SP plugins, and deactivated & deleted all unused WP plugins, got the same result as before.

as you noticed, its the first part of the page loading that causes the big delay... wp has not even started loading yet it appears... so not sure how simple press is affecting that... but as you note doesnt happen on other pages...
has it been doing this since you started (have done lots of customizations wth you) or just start recently...
probably going to need some server sw to monitor what is going on.. or perhaps the wp debug bar plugin for wp and some of the associated add ons to get more info...right now there is no page loading activity visible at all with the tools i have...
what wp theme is this? wild thought but perhaps try going to forum- integration -page and permalink and enable the strict wp api option...
