The "weird behaviour" according to my observations affects the upstream worse than the downstream. It makes gaming very difficult and web pages take a long time to load.

As for VM's silence - they lay themselves open to speculation that they have not allocated sufficient peering bandwidth - when those peering points come under stress (whether through innocent load or by some sort of attack), you see these effects in TBB.

That's not the only reason - if you see it and others don't then there's something going on in your network segment. hence the value of a thread like this.
