I-75 thru Atlanta has had a terrible reputation for years. One that is undeserved in my experience. I'm not a resident of the area but I have been driving thru it several times a year for decades.
1) Will you see a slowdown going thru? Most likely but they rarely slow you down more than 20-30 minutes. Less if you have at least two people in the vehicle and use the HOV lane any alternative route will burn more time than that.
2) If you think about taking I-410, don't it's always worse. It is non-stop rush hour. I don't recall seeing a 30 or 40 vehicle backup to get on one of the off-ramps on any other Interstate. Now I do confess I essentially know nothing of the eastern/midwest cities, Chicago, DC or LA since I do my darnedest to avoid them.
