That's not how it works, XBL traffic should have the same priority as HTTP at all times, if it doesn't that is a fault.
VM obviously have problems with a lot of traffic being unidentified and falling into the same class as P2P / NNTP meanwhile NNTP over SSL from well known sources continues to enjoy unimpeded access.
Poor configuration and the shaping hardware not working as advertised.
