The best shot you have at tweaking FS is to play around with the FS9.cfg file, but I warn you, this is potentially damaging. Make a backup of the FS9.cfg, then try to get the best settings you can get.

First of all, allow hidden files to be shown.

then, go to:
C:
Documents and Settings
Your User Name
Application Data
Microsoft
FS9
fs9.cfg

EDIT The backslash won't show so I had to seperate the instructions.

If you want to improve performance another choice is to download Microsoft's 9.1 update - it is meant to really improve performance.
