Extremely sporadic, wildly varying, sometimes 0 KB/s transfer speeds.

I started talking about this in my Broken Time Stamps post but figured I'd post here in case anyone else is having issues and can weigh in with their own experiences.
For several days I've been experiencing some slow transfer speeds. At one point last night it had taken about 30 minutes to transfer 60% of an 80 MEGABYTE file from Blomp to my desktop. I have a gigabit ethernet connection and files from Google drive transferred so fast the file transfer dialog box didn't even open.
Today I transferred about 1.1 gigabytes from Blomp to my computer in a about 10 seconds.
But over the last hour or two, things have been slowing down again.
At first it was taking a second to rename a folder or a couple seconds to begin a file transfer. But as I continued working things just started taking longer and longer. My last two actions have been the worst. The first action was renaming a folder and it took about 2 minutes between pressing enter after typing in the new name, and it completing the rename and returning control to me. The second action was just moving one folder to another within the Blomp drive. It contains just under 3GB of files, but should still be pretty quick. Yet it had been going for a couple minutes before I started writing up this post and is still going now. It's now been about 45 minutes so far.
Am I the only person experiencing this?
