I found a similar pattern when I checked some time ago, while 
transferring big (several Gb) files from one desktop to the other. I 
concluded the cause of the gaps was the destination PC's SATA spinning 
disk that needed to empty its cache before accepting more data. In 
theory the network is 1Gb/s (measured with iperf, it is really close to 
that) and the SATA is 6Gb/s so it should not be the limit, but I have 
strong doubts as how this speed is measured by the manufacturer. As 
indirect confirmation, when I switched the destination disk to a flash 
one the overall network transfer speed improved a lot (a lot lot!).
