You should use better hashing algorithms for LACP.
Take a look at this explanation: https://www.ibm.com/
developerworks/community/blogs/storageneers/entry/Enhancing_IP_Network_
Performance_with_LACP?lang=en
In general only L2 hashing is made, you can achieve better throughput with
L3 and multiple IPs, or with L4 (ports).
Your switch should support those features too, if you’re using one.

The problem isn't the LACP connection between the host & the switch, but
setting up LACP between the VM & the host. For reasons of stability, my 4.1
cluster's switch type is currently "Linux Bridge", not "OVS". Ergo
my
question, is LACP on the VM possible with that, or will I have to use ALB?

Hi All,
My hosts have all of their interfaces bonded via LACP to maximise
throughput, however the VMs are still limited to Gbit virtual interfaces.
Is there a way to configure my VMs to take full advantage of the bonded
physical interfaces?
One way might be adding several VIFs to each VM & using ALB bonding,
however I'd rather use LACP if possible...
Cheers,
