I think it comes down to a Windows performance issue rather than a specific
service issue. Have you ever created a perfmon baseline in the past (of CPU,
Memory, Physical Disk, and Network Objects, and can also include DHCP
objects, etc)?

If you have, you can create another log and compare them and visually see
the performance degradation.

Hopefully William has a better solution for you...
