This would seem to be the simplest place to "put the screw" as it were.

You're going to have to separate them at some point anyway and, once you start, you may find that the bulk of what you're doing in one or the other can be separated more easily than you think they can right now.

Probably the best thing to do is bring in a fresh pair of eyes who wasn't there for the initial design and let them see how "tightly coupled" they really are.

Once you get the two apps separated, to whatever degree, you can start pinpointing where you can most easily offload to a second, or possibly third server/VM pretty easily id think...
