Uploading to Google services via Chrome renders connection unusable

Reported by nker...@gmail.com, Oct 3 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.143 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
https://drive.google.com

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to Drive
2. Try to upload a file
3. Try to load a non-cached page in another tab

What is the expected behavior?
The file will upload and not disrupt the internet connection

What went wrong?
The file will upload, however, the internet connection will be spotty at best. Ping times are sporadic if they go through at all. Monitoring the upload speed reveals that I'm uploading at twice what my ISP assigned bandwidth is good for (?) and it disrupts all other computers connected to the network.
Browsing the web is all but impossible while an upload to Google services is in progress.

Did this work before? Yes Sometime last year, don't remember exactly when.

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.143  Channel: stable
OS Version: 53.0.2785.143 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

Hello.
I've reported this issue once before, and for a while it seemed to be fixed, but recently it cropped up again.
Whenever I upload a sizable file to a Google Service (Drive, Photos, whatever), it just bogs down my connection. Non-Google services like Dropbox work just fine. Using Drive in Firefox also works fine.
Please actually work to fix this issue this time instead of saying "We've got top men working on it" and delete the topic. I am more than willing to work with you and provide information if need be if it means it will help get this bug out.

Although I'm reporting this for Linux, there is another machine running Windows 7 Pro that has the same exact issue. Also for whatever it's worth, it affects Chromium on a Raspberry Pi as well.

Here's the video from the FIRST time I had this issue:

And here's the video from this time:

Thank you for reporting the issue. Could you please try disabling the QUIC protocol and see whether the issue goes away. To disable QUIC:
1) In Google Chrome, open the following URL: "chrome://flags/#enable-quic"
2) In the "Experimental QUIC protocol" section, select "disabled" from the drop-down list.
3) Relaunch Google Chrome.

Sorry for the wait, I tried it today and it seems to have worked. If that changes, I'll let you know.
Thank you!
