They are currently under heavy load of inquiries so you should expect a longer waiting time.
If I were to exchange BTC for ETH and if the exchange were to be conducted 'in-house' within Blockchain.info portal - they use Shapeshift - would this exchange go slowly due to btc current processing issues and would it be expensive to exchange?

I'm not sure but there are a lot of people complaining about them recently so If I were you, I wouldn't use them now.

Yes it'll be expensive compared to normal because of the network congestion, I think your deposit has to confirm in the nearest block as much as possible because I've seen a lot of users whoose transaction (deposit) got stucked for days and it's either "trade failed" or stuck to "exchange in progress"if it ever confirms after those days. As for withdrawal fees they released a list of it, since exchanging in blockchain.info is powered by shapeshift, I think these also applies to them Huh https://info.shapeshift.io/about
