"Counter-Strike: Source" (CSS) is a remake of "Counter-Strike," Valve's 2000 first-person shooter computer game. CSS updated the game to the Source engine that Valve made for "Half-Life 2." Gaming systems have advanced significantly since CSS came out in 2004, and players now seek new ways to improve the game's performance. In particular, they seek to increase the game's FPS rate, or the number of frames that it renders each second. One way is the set the game's heap size, which is the amount of memory reserved for the program.
