more throughput if using more interfaces per machines ?


i am using machines each with 4 Intel 1000BT dual Ethernet cards .

1. When i connect two machines ( 1 interface each with a crossover) i gat a thr
oughput of 750 mbps. 

$> iperf -s
$> iperf IP -c

then when i connected all 4 interfaces with 4 interfaces of the other machines 
i was excepting 750*4 Mbps but i got the same 750 Mbps as throughput. What 
could
 be wrong ? how can i check if the server and client are both using all the 
four
 interfaces ?

2. While running the same test in UDP mode i got a bandwidth of 1.5 Kbps ? what
 could be wrong ?
