You have total transfer per day limited, but do you have total
transfer per second limited using BandwidthRate and BandwidthBurst?
If not, I can imagine the Tor server keeping enough bytes going
through during the periods that it's using that 1 GB that there's no
room for anything else.  Or is that not consistent with the problem
you're experiencing; e.g., does having Tor running degrade your
connectivity even when it's known to be hibernating?

in case you haven't seen it before.
