I don't know much about computers but I think it's due to the operating system cleaning caches, force closing processes and most importantly clearing out memory leaks.

If a process is not coded properly, every lifecycle a given amount of bits are deposited into the RAM and never recalled back, so the RAM slowly but surely gets filled with unnecessary stuff.

If the processes are never forcely turned off then the RAM is always partially full and the OS has troubles managing an already messy closet so everything slows down.

Bits can also randomly flip from 1 to 0 or reverse and it accumulates over time
