I have a Linux master/media server with a single connection to a backup 
network
via gigabit that I will  be migrating to a bonding in a day or two.  I 
have seen
the single link with 3 or 4 streams to separate clients push an average of 
80 megabytes/sec
and peak much higher.   Ping me next week and I'll let you know what I saw 
with
bonding.  This is against Extreme switchs, not Cisco, but the same should 
hold true.

Thanks
Peter
