This sounds like a networking or virus issue. Check your network traffic with a packet sniffer, and run a virus scan on all of your machines.

Defragmenting your systems regularly is one of the best ways to increase performance. Also, load up Process Explorer on some sample systems and see what’s running. You’ll be amazed at all the junk you can cut back on. Otherwise, backup and do a fresh re-install and your systems will be like new.
