Duplicate files are not the reason why your MBP is running slow unless they are taking ALL of your HDD space.
If you wish to pursue the matter any further, download and post an Etrecheck report:

It's best to describe the functional problem, if you have one, in as much relevant detail as possible, rather than to say what you think is causing it or how you think it should be solved.
