Ping is something that cannot be 'controlled'. Granted that you can 'raise' it via limiting, but lowering the ping is near impossible.
Ping is all dependent on your ISP's hops to the destination. Also, the only real way to negate latency issues is to use this 'client side' crap unless the server can take the load.
Shame really.
