It doesn't affect connection, but amount of workable space left on you mahine does affect how well it runs the game.
In fact theres two type of lag, there's lag caused by packet loss through lost data while its been sent from on to another, and there lag caused by machine when it fails to keep up with the demand of game its running at time.
TT is not the most demanding of games, but it is memory hungry, being there is memory leak invovled here.
In fact when measuring PING which is rate it takes one bit of code to go from A(your machine) to B(game server) or vice-versa both lags need to added, even a machine connected directly to main game sever will still have a certain figure for lag, due to how fast the machine processes information it's receieveing.
Basically the more programs running at same time and less space you have on you machine the slower the game will play.
