I had a weird performance issues on Hetzner virtual machines where network bandwidth would drop to 50mbit/s like it was being throttled. My application had a tendency to use very little bandwidth most of the time but when updates were available we needed 10-40GB in a day or so and I always suspected we were getting throttled but support never admitted it. On average we were below their resource limits but clearly at times we were above the average. Support was pretty dismissive and arrogant and I don't regret moving off to netcup who in comparison the experience has been flawless.
