I forgot to mention that independent applications (therefor many
independent connections) won't use just one connection, i.e. both
connections will be used from the holistic view of a workstation, but a
single transaction (think doing a wget for a single file) will always be
tied to a single line because of the way that TCP/IP works.
Applications that make many connections (think BitTorrent) would
theoretically use both.
