Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.

You have round robin over 4 links that you replicate DRBD over? TCP
reordering is definitely going to kill you. This is expected to have
lower throughput that a single non-bonded link.

Remove that bonding configuration. Then re-run your tests.

If you want higher throughput than about 170MB/s over the wire in any
single TCP connection, get 10G Ethernet. Or Infiniband. Or Dolphin
Express. Bonding isn't going to help you.

Cheers,
Florian
