If its saying your users are constantly online then this is down to the setup of your cron jobs. Have you set them up yet?

As for site speed, I'm not to sure, It might be worth sharing your hosting details/server specs.

Have you recently added any script or plugin?

Any chat script? any other script which request server very often? If so disable them and check.

Remy,  if you contact your hosting company I am sure that they will be able to give you a detailed report on which scripts load your server the most. Once you get this info, it will be easier to find a way to increase your site speed. 

You will definitely need to check how ofter your CRON runs to resolve the issue with users showing up as online even if they are not. CRON configuration manual can be found here: http://docs.oxwall.org/install:cron
