no i think you can't improve the ping ... and you can't improve fps, all you can do is "break" the 100fps limit if you're under windows with HL-Pingbooster

You will want to tweak your sv_maxrate and sv_minrate to optimize your server for lower pings

also you if you are not running anything that is custom,you'll want to set sv_allowdownload and sv_allowupload to 0

EDIT : As for FPS,the maximum it can handle is 100 FPS,no more than that.

There isn't much you can do ping wise unless the reason for the higher pings is lack of processor or ram.
40 ping is rather good anyhow.

I'm not sure if it works but theres such a plugin as hl ping booster. As far as 100 fps you can't go higher than 100fps unless you raise your refresh rate which has to be done with a cvar.

HL ping booster is a metamod plugin, you can make your hlds run with more than 100fps, of course it won't work ingame, you will still have 100fps
from the readme:
Info:
- Booster makes server run with higher FPS by making 'sleep' function for more accurently.
HLDS.EXE tries to sleep 1ms but default minimum sleep time in Windows is usually 10ms.
This causes server fps be always under 100fps. This tweak has no effect on listenserver
as listenserver doesn't sleep between frames. With default settings WinHL-Booster sets
minimum sleep time to 3ms allowing server to run higher FPS (333fps when empty). For
example when server is running at 100fps with booster server is sleeping 3ms and working
7ms every frame. Without booster server would sleep 10ms and work 7ms causing fps to be
around 60 (1000/(10+7) = ~58).

Linux servers have PingBooster built in.
You just add it to the command line.

But it also puts a much greater strain on the processor usage of the server.

  1. Get a better comp all together
  2. Get more ram
  3. Get a faster Internet connection
If your looking for more than that your pretty much screwed

So im guessing this is your own computer, so its probabaly on a shared connection. Thats an instant slow down. Also your probabaly running other programs, that slows it down also.

You are much better off renting a dedicated server from a server host if you are that worried about FPS and Ping.
No matter what you do, listen servers will always have issues if you run them on a machine you are also playing on.
