Reasons for slow LAN file transfers?

$

Files downloads from a server on the LAN (usually via a web page, but sftp tested about the same) have been slowing down.

Strangely, some files (all in the same folder and similar sizes) are faster than others, like <1 second vs >10 minutes. It seems to get worse and worse (over an hour eventually), and goes back to being instant for a while after a reboot, but then gets worse and worse again. The time between needing reboots has been decreasing.

I'm new to this, so what sort of things should I check for that could be clogging up over time, but are cleared out with a reboot?
