You need to have your hosting provider up your PHP memory limit.
Yes it uses the same DB and is safe, take a look at this thread regarding performance for starters:
bbPress for Millions of posts?
Yes, some themes support bbPress or you can roll your own see https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/ for starters.
From https://codex.bbpress.org/widgets/
Register URI: Link to your custom signup page eg. A WordPress page using the [bbp-register] shortcode.
Lost Password URI: Link to your lost-password page eg. A WordPress page using the [bbp-lost-pass] shortcode.
I just published that FAQ and linked to it from the main page:
Codex

If you have any additions, revisions, edits or whatever go fo it.
Try resetting your permalinks : WordPress dashboard go to Settings -> Permalinks

I just installed bbPress to a single install of WordPress. I found the bbPress login widget. But how do I determine the register/lost password URI to set it up?
Can I just ask is bbPress compatible with WordPress 3.4.1 and Buddypress Version 1.6.1?
I’m having a nightmare installing bbpress, i’ve setup many forums before using software such as phpbb and even with all the file editing, database changes etc – it was never this difficult 🙁
I’ve followed the guides with various levels of success, sometimes I get ‘unauthorised to view this page’ sometimes I get no link to the forum page – sometimes I get a page with no forum topics.
So, just wondered if I’m wasting my time? lol
I know this is almost 7 months later, but i need some help.
Not seeing all forums created
I’ll help out on trac with a patch like this where I can.

Hey,
I did what you suggested, which is in essence just repeating the bbp_get_user_topics_started() function. However, I was not able to get this to output (I created a user-topics-replied.php file and used this for the replies loop, but it keeps outputting the “You have not replied to any topics” message I added in case it was empty.
Were you able to get this to output?
When I asked the question, I was wondering if there was anything built into bbPress 2.x that did something similar. I noticed another topic called “User Replied To?” but there was no answers.
Hi everybody, i use :
bbpress 2.1.2
wordpress 3.4.1
Situation :
Forum_1
Topic_1
Post_1
Post_2
Post_3
Question :
If i want to reply in the topic_1, i write my comment and i submit the reply. The new reply will be append on the topic_1 after Post_3.
Now i would like allow to reply to a specific post, for exemple i would like reply on Post_2, the new reply will between Post_2 and Post_3.
Can we do that natively on bbpress ? i can’t find, or i need a plugin, if need it, which one ?
John, I read a message of you in another thread where you say :
> That said, what you want to do is as easy as making a bbpress.php
> template in the root of your theme. It will act as the wrapper for all
> bbPress content.
What does that mean ? I’ve read the codex, but not this in there.
Thank you
Same problem for me !
bbpress is configured to use /forums/ slug to view forums index page. But this page /forums/ gets the page.php file of my theme ! Just for header, nav, and title. Juste after the title, bbpress files are recognized.
Also, single forum view gets the single.php file of my theme.
I removed the gdbbPressTools plugin this did the trick!
Thank you aaclayton & iamzippy for your replies, much appreciated.
I’m using the current version of bbPress, in a Suffusion theme, with DigitalAccessPass.
What does that error message mean?
Don’t modify bbPress core. Use the filters instead.
Just FYI,
This is very, very similar to the probl;em I’m having that’s been referenced here.
Layout Problem with 2.1.2 Forum Using PHP Ease Theme

Hi there,
I currently run two bbpress forums in the old stand-alone version (1.0.3 and 1.0.2) and I would like to upgrade to the latest plugin version. I have been searching the forums for instructions on how to do this without much success. Can somebody please advise on how to do this upgrade/conversion. Thanks in advance!
Open bbp-common-template.php from bbp-include
find
// Wrap the separator in a span before padding and filter if ( !empty( $sep ) )
and edit
$sep = '' . ' EDIT HERE ' . '';
You can change it into any text or image w/ codes.

that looks pretty good
Well…it seems like you want a working solution more than an ideal one, so here goes. You could replace archive-forum.php with:
http://pastebin.com/NktqDANZ
Plus anything else you explicitly want in the page.
DISCLAIMER: I don’t actually advise doing this. I feel like there are probably better ways to achieve the categorical forum listing that you describe. I implemented a categorical forum listing on my own site (http://tamrielfoundry.com), using the general method outlined by Lynq in this thread:
https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/customising-bbp_list_forums-last-poster-block/
What you are asking for is outside the default scope of bbpress functionality. It can definitely be modded in using some custom php functions and templates.
I would like to force specific topic tags on all topics in a forum. For example, if the forum name is Forum 1, I would like any topics created to automatically include the tags “tag a and tag b”. If the forum name is Forum 2, I would like any topics created to automatically include the tags “tag b and tag c”. Is this possible and if so, how can it be implemented? Thank you for your time and consideration, Robert WordPress version: 3.4.1 bbPress version: 2.1.2

I’m going to explode, here.
You’re kidding me, right? Who or what are you getting defensive about? I’m not even TALKING about that! We can already DO exactly what I’m talking about inside a normal page with only several single-forum shortcodes! The problem is, because of breadcrumbs not linking to the new page I can create for that, I can’t use a different page. I have to use the .php page that is the forum-index.
Let me make this as simple as humanly possible. This is all I want on my “forums index”: what you get when you put the following into a page:
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id-1]
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id-2]
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id-3]
Let’s assume those are the id’s of forums of my choosing. In this case, those are the id’s of my three top-level categories. Whatever you get when posting those three shortcodes into one page is EXACTLY what I want as my forums index page. (By the way, all other forums systems already look like this. And don’t assume that everyone likes bbPress’ current index page, which is the only index page of its kind. That is speculation.)
That is all. Nothing more. We can do it on a single page or post, so I know we can do it on a .php file.
And finally, don’t be smart with me. bbPress is the only forums system that integrates with WordPress as well as it does. To have a multimedia site with a completely separate forums is to KILL YOUR SITE. I understand why, if your forums isn’t the landing page of your site, you MUST have full integration between your site and forums in order to keep traffic. That is why I can’t use things other than bbPress.
If you’re going to respond to me, at least read the first post. Just reading the latest two posts isn’t going to give you enough info to respond well without annoying the poster. Please, for the love of god…
