<p>I'm actually using straight through connections, i suppose this works faster than with intermediate switches.
<br>I just did a test with netcat only to find that bonding does not show to be faster, but it think i'm not using the right testtool. Netperf or iperf seem to do a better job for this.

<br>> Sorry to hijack your question, but, from my readings, it the best throughput
