I think it's just a matter of how many occasions the ICMP packets have
of going out or into your system. All the packets are put in a queue
and if the queue it's more full then the packets have to wait more to
have your ICMP packet sent or received. You are talking about uploading
files, so your ICMP packets have to wait in the queue to be sent, and
the time you get it's the time from when you sent the packet to when the
packet it's received, as you have 512 of download and 128 of upload it's
normal the queue when you are uploading it's more full and the packets
have to wait more.
It's just my guess. I'm not an expert in this kind of things and I could
be wrong.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
