You could have some duplex mismatches. Do a clear counters then do a show int awhile later. Look for collisions and input output errors. There shouldn't be much, look for high errors rates. Then play with duplex/speed settings then check for errors again, maybe you may need to replace a couple cables to reduce errors.
