216000000 ? How many replies you had ???

It seems that SQL will be your only option them. After running the SQL, repair/reset the forums to be sure.

USE WITH CAUTION, MAKE SURE TO HAVE A BACKUP OF THE DB.

DELETE a,b,c FROM wp_posts a
LEFT JOIN wp_term_relationships b ON (a.ID=b.object_id)
LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta c ON (a.ID=c.post_id)
WHERE a.post_type IN ('forum', 'topic', 'reply')
