A VPS is shared and the timeslots for your CPU cycles are too. If the
system is heavily overbooked (common there to achieve the low price),
the CPU cycles available to your system are that low that processes
need to wait.
Have a look at load avg in top/htop.
If that is more than 1, processes needed that to wait. If this is much
higher, the system is overloaded.
Also check which processes consume much CPU time.
