FTP Trouble.

I am currently using the Debian OS on my box. I am currently using the vsftpd FTP daemon. When i transfer large files, the transfer speed keeps slowing down and eventually sits at 0KB/s for about 5 seconds and then it says "Connection closed. Server timeout." Now after this, for about 30 seconds it doesn't allow me to connect to FTP or SSH. During this process i have other servers like ventrilo that keep on running fine though. Does anyone know the reason for this or how to fix it?

Does other network traffic halt also?

Yes it does, it turns out i was using vsftp, which is only for the sftp client. I was trying to use other clients which was causing this problem, so i installed a new daemon, and it fixed the problem.
