My problem is that graphs of the 2 cisco ports show traffic is only

loadbalance hashes the header to determine which link to use; you

want round-robin instead? check trunk(4) for descriptions.
I should have said, I have also tried with roundrobin
and also removing the channel-group from the switch.
The only real performance increase I've seen is with the channel-
group removed in which case we do see some traffic across both ports,
but we still only get about 1.4MB/sec and not the 1.8MB/s-2.2MB/s I
would have expected to see from scp transfers. (graphs show 8Mbit
which matches what I'm seeing from scp)
With the ports set to GigE we see a major speed increase, so it's not
a bottle neck on the sending machines as far as I can ascertain.
