Assuming you have root access to the server try running mysqltuner to get an idea of what performance optimization might be possible server-side. Make sure you know what you're doing in terms of configuring the MySQL server though, you could create more problems than you solve, depending. You may consider consulting a sysadmin or DBA for this.
