I just found on Google a doc that says that some routers would take some
packets down a slow path (Software) versus the fast path (CEF, hardwared
etc...)

From my ISP NOC experience years ago, I have seen this often and customers
question it. All the ISP has to do to verify they are good, is a router to
router ping. An ISP backbone SLA is only ever hop to hop and will not
consider times for multiple hops. They are probably having to 007 some path
due to federal regulations. You also had a good point, not being a customer
of theirs would not even get you in the door.

But there is no problem at all. I just wanted to see the delay by hop and
noticed this. Even if I had an issue, I am not a customer of the transit ISP
so not sure I would get help

I am thinking it could be a possible "route back" issue. I do think there
is enough there to contact the provider (if you are a customer) and have
them look at it from there point of view. Hard to say at this point.
