If I killed and restart connections would be a good idea to improve performance?
- Having one or more Filesystem backups could affect Performance too ?
Many network connections
might affect performance, but right now it isn't even established if you have "many" of them. Connections in the stated of "TIME_WAITING" will not contribute to the load at all and your suggested solution of killing and restarting connections would definitely not help at all.
Running filesystem backups
could very well degrade performance but if that is the case or not we can't say.

this little introduction to performance tuning i wrote. Most of the tools mentioned there should work for you and most of the concepts explained there should apply to your server.
I hope this helps.
