In Spanish we say a file "pesa" when it is very big, it has many KB, so it can be slow to send or download. I wonder if there is a colloquial way of saying that in English.

heavy files
We mostly talk about downloading heavy files, or just large or big files. So you will need to change the phrase to use an adjective rather than a verb.
Example sentence:
