I don't understand why it would matter. Are we suggesting that steam would cause low FPS? Perhaps if it is downloading whilst you play but it auto-pauses to stop harddrive activity when in a game.
On modern PCs its memory footprint isn't large enough to cause problems with the FPS of games otherwise it would affect other games as well. I get the same FPS in MoW:AS when it was run through steam and when it was stand alone. You'll have more effect if you close your internet browser than steam being off.
(Side note: I remember when HL2 came out and I had and older machine with 512mb of RAM, it was impossible to load HL2 for me with steam running and I had to upgrade.)
