I think it's important to remember that Twitter had this problem because they were ULTRA successful to the degree of being a household name, a new cultural lingo, a game changing tech of enormous value, etc.

Well actually with a big of good design from start you may avoid this problem from the start with little efforts. You'll have to scale anyway but it will be a matter of buying more hardware and not redesigning the system.
