There's a good overview at
http://highscalability.com/blog/2013/7/8/the-architecture-twitter-uses-to-deal-with-150m-active-users.html
but the TL;DR is that there's a lot of writing going on.

As Jay said, the best solution would probably be rolling out a Prospective
Search (or similar) service to test for interesting messages, then write
them into the individual account feeds.
