Actually... I wish to change my statement :)
When I use iperf with -P4, I get the following for the 4 connections:
[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[1800]  0.0-10.0 sec  1.19 GBytes  1.02 Gbits/sec
[1844]  0.0-10.0 sec  1.13 GBytes   967 Mbits/sec
[1748]  0.0-14.0 sec  13.5 MBytes  8.05 Mbits/sec
[1836]  0.0-15.9 sec   391 MBytes   207 Mbits/sec
[SUM]  0.0-15.9 sec  2.71 GBytes  1.47 Gbits/sec
The test is only supposed to run for 10 seconds, so the fact that it
takes an additional 4-6 seconds for two of the connections to finish up
means that maybe things aren't as they should be.
Sometimes iperf runs all the connections at full speed (giving me around
2.4GBit/second) but sometimes some of them stall and I get much worse
performance.
Something to investigate I suppose.
