Regardless of any help we might offer regarding this, you need to
upgrade your installation to 9.0.17. You are behind by several
performance, security, and integrity bugfixes, some of which address
critical corruption bugs related to replication.

This isn't enough information. Just knowing the relative sizes of the
tables doesn't tell us which columns are indexed, whether or not the
query is using those indexes, how many rows usually match, which queries
are performing badly, and so on.
Please refer to this page to ask performance related questions:

Without much of this information, we'd only be speculating.
