The YouTube stuff is a specific issue which isn't related to any speed upgrades. Tends to be either problems with private peering or connectivity to hosted CDN.
Any access network upgrades in terms of bandwidth will be largely irrelevant to the browsing experience. That's dependent more upon latency, loss, jitter and the construction of the websites.
If you watch a website load it's a ton of really small transactions. In the case of VM none of this will even register on the downstream shaper, so more about the transactions flowing smoothly rather than quickly.
