Dear Linus, I have a concept for your YouTube video. As a big Linux enthusiast, I’d love to see you showcase this project. The idea came to me after I noticed your Steam caching server and wondered why there wasn’t a part 2. Here’s what I’m thinking: With a few gigabit network cards in bonding mode, running the server on that setup could speed up downloads. Try connecting two cards in bonding mode on the Linux client—recommend using Round-Robin (bonding mode 0). If both the server and client are in bonding mode, you might see a noticeable boost. Check out this guide for more details: Bonding on ubuntu. Sorry about my language issues.

Bonding functions similarly regardless of whether you experience a straightforward speed boost or not. It relies on the specific mode and hardware capabilities. Consumer equipment usually doesn’t handle etherchannel (like Cisco), but most support advanced features such as LACP and LAG.

It's unusual to encounter this concept. To achieve peak performance, you'd require matching endpoints with identical ports and connections, such as a PC equipped with five 10Gbps ports and a switch supporting the same setup.

It isn't necessary to match every specification exactly, just ensure the requirements are met. For example, with a 32-port switch, a 5-port card works well as a cost-effective choice. It offers sufficient capacity for most needs without requiring a full upgrade path (like jumping from 1G to 10G) or needing high availability features.
