There is an infite loop on reply update caused by buddypress activity from bbpress if bbp_thread_replies() is false.

activity tries to get reply position, in this call position is updated for the reply but we are still in edit_post action so wp_update_post is called recursively until server gives up.

I would propose following changes in bbp_update_reply_position in bbpress/replies/functions.php:2128.

function bbp_update_reply_position( $reply_id = 0, $reply_position = 0 ) {

	// Bail if reply_id is empty
	$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id( $reply_id );
	if ( empty( $reply_id ) )
		return false;

	// If no position was passed, get it from the db and update the menu_order
	if ( empty( $reply_position ) ) {
		$reply_position = bbp_get_reply_position_raw( $reply_id, bbp_get_reply_topic_id( $reply_id ) );
	}
	
	$post = get_post($reply_id);
	
	if($post->menu_order == $reply_position)
	    return (int) $reply_position;

	// Update the replies' 'menp_order' with the reply position
	wp_update_post( array(
		'ID'         => $reply_id,
		'menu_order' => $reply_position
	) );

	return (int) $reply_position;
}

because i cant edit my reply my correction:

function bbp_update_reply_position( $reply_id = 0, $reply_position = 0 ) {

    global $wpdb;
    
	// Bail if reply_id is empty
	$reply_id = bbp_get_reply_id( $reply_id );
	if ( empty( $reply_id ) )
		return false;

	// If no position was passed, get it from the db and update the menu_order
	if ( empty( $reply_position ) ) {
		$reply_position = bbp_get_reply_position_raw( $reply_id, bbp_get_reply_topic_id( $reply_id ) );
	}
	
	$db_menu_order = $wpdb->get_var("select menu_order from {$wpdb->posts} where ID={$reply_id}");
	
	if($db_menu_order == $reply_position)
	    return (int) $reply_position;

	// Update the replies' 'menp_order' with the reply position
	wp_update_post( array(
		'ID'         => $reply_id,
		'menu_order' => $reply_position
	) );

	return (int) $reply_position;
}
