I've seen phpBB servers with 10,000s of users and obviously vBulletin here has way more than that.
Run the latest MySQL and you shouldnt have performance issues unless your server is really outdated or misconfigured.

A lot of people say that Vbulletin is "a lot more secure", although whenever there is a safety hole in PHPBB, theres always a team of developers working to fix it - Jelsoft are paid to go over their code 24/7 - not improve it until you pay again.
