99% its not because of wordops, so its not the right place to get help. Because it can be anything... but usually its because of diskspeed and to frequently I/O operations on it...
- More details about the application, php (wordpress + woocommerce? some extra service?) javascript (react, vue etc)?
Consider to install and use the monitoring system like zabbix or other where you can see the problems if vps is a culpit.
- check disk speed on your vps if its to low (for example you have ssd but the speed is like hdd etc) ask vps support to check this.
- active slow logs and find the problematic queries (ask developer to fix this or rewrite code)
The best is to hire some one who can analyse whole situation if you cant figure out what is the problem.
