Okay, that makes me even more curious why we don't send successive
packets out successive pipes in a bonded link.
This is not done because it leads to packet reordering which
if bad enough can trigger retransmits.
Scott Feldman's posting mentioned this, as did one other I
think.
Same flows (which in this context means TCP connection) must
go over the same link to avoid packet reordering at the receiver.
