Hi Gerd,
The switch does not have a specific output for the mbps. You can check various things like TCAM to see if it is high. CPU utilization isn't much considered because the switch is hardware switching traffic in layer 2. I'm not sure if oversubscription comes in to play here but I'm assuming not. I don't know if there is an ASIC control per port or per group of ports.
The best thing I could say is to find out what works and what doesn't work and depending how things like, we can make a conclusion. If a point to point connection with the sevrer has the same behavior, it is what we can expect. If you make a point to point connection through another device such as a router or different switch, is there the same behavior? If you change computers accessing the server, same issue? Swapping out wires, same issues?
You can establish a baseline behavior with what works and doesn't work then you know what to expect and where is the breakdown. Of course, also can verify the switch is on the latest firmware, can be as simple as a software issue on the switch.
