AWS has a growing list of instance types with multiple NICs. There should be some way to configure the S3 client to use a particular network interface (or multiple network interfaces?)
Use Case
Maximum throughput cannot be achieved with all instances of the S3 client using just the one default network interface.
Proposed Solution
S3 client takes IP of network interface to bind its connections to
If multiple IPs passed, the S3 client distributes connections among them all
