On our appliance, to get around the irritating load-balancing+failover issue, we're using 802.3ad link aggregation.  Trying to load-balance Gigabit is really an exercise in futility - almost all of the performance improvement comes from improved interrupt queuing (and even that is already mitigated on the card through coalescing interrupts).  The real benefit is the failover - that works very very well.

 

Thanks,

Matt
