So far I’ve been using IPB and my custom scripts all coded in PHP but I am really disappointed of the long term performance of it.
I would like to move to native coding, the learning time to put into doesn’t matter at all.
Ive found CppCMS and it seems to be the exact solution i was searching for.
I would like to know from anyone who has chosen this way, what have you done?
Is CppCMS the best one in term of performance?
If yes, with what webserver should I run it with and any special configuration?
I am really searching for the best way to go in term of performance (learning time and coding time does not matter).

Performance problems with web applications rarely are caused by the choice of language. More typically they are caused in faulty architecture design.
While PHP is the slowest performing in web app development, and it’s a mess of a language, there are plenty examples of very high traffic web sites using PHP.
You also say that:
learning time and coding time does not matter.
It does. If you have fixed deadline, each hour you have to spend on mundane coding is each hour less spent on architecture design, testing etc.

CppCMS is a good solution, but another one to look at is Microsoft’s Casablanca which is designed for very efficient (and fast) performance for the cloud. Note that is offers a lot of web-style tooling but it is not a “website framework” for easily writing a website, more about writing webservices and REST APIs.
