I'd like to see one of these "parallel" connections you are talking
about here, and how they are better than a serial link.
TCP should perform better than UDP, because TCP uses windowing. If you
are using smart TCP stacks, the window will be expanding. Load balancing
can't get the latency down (for any protocol).
