Not slower than a single ether channel, no ;-) Considerably
slower than link layer bonding. The netgraph version provides
a really useful functionality, and I suppose that 2GB and 10GB
fiber interfaces will do away with any pressure to give us
bonding in the kernel.
Sorry, didn't mean to sound ungrateful.
