We just started blowing up twitter and went from about 15 online people to a couple hundred. Our site slowed down MAJORLY. What are some things I can tweak to handle the massive load of users better?
 
Something must be wrong with your host.

Adminforums is on shared hosting with 20 members/200 guests online at most times and everything is fine.

Can you post up your CPU utilisation, your httpd load, mysql loads and netstat loads?

cPanel, I think I found your problem :D

Anyways, make a php file and place <?php phpinfo(); ?> in it then open it up, look for a section labeled APC.
 
Also, you should realy update your php to 5.3, and mysql to 5.5. while your at it updating to the lastest version of apache can't hurt either.
