What is the definition of "very" here - relative to bonding I presume? 
Are there actual performance figures available at this point?  Something 
along the lines of test through both on the same hardware.  I don't have 
HW on which to run myself but would be quite happy to help with say 
netperf command selection to demonstrate the difference between the two.

happy benchmrking,
