Short answer : No.

Long answer : Technically anything you install on your computer slows it down to some degree. It shouldn't make it too terribly slow (unless you have a really crappy computer), but it will effect the speed somewhat. You probably won't even notice a different though.

However, one thing you will notice is a decrease in you internet speed. The more people accessing a file, or the bigger the file is, the slower your network will become. But, if you really want to share files, it's totally worth it. I've had a file server set up for a while now, and I really benefit from it.

Speed up pdf access on ftp site?

There really no easy way to speed up PDF access. If the file is real large it will slow down access to it. Also if the server the file is hosted on could be slow or have to many people trying to gain access at the same time you are. Your own internet connection and your computer can be causing slow connections. The best thing you can do is try and troubleshoot the reason for slow connections.
