I doubt a couple of files will slow down the computer.

Normally the things that slow down a machine the most are programs running in the background. These can be things like popup blockers, spyware, virus scanners, spam filters etc. If you have downloaded heaps of these sorts of programs and have them all running at once it will slow down your machine.

Less files are in use by the system and other processes. Allowing these to be defragged also.
