Port-Channel Load balancing

Hi smart peeps,

Sorry for the really basic question, but am I correct in assuming that to
choose the "most efficient form of load-balancing" for traffic across an
etherchannel it will always depend on two things.

1) Switch type - If using 3550s mac is the only option

2) If using a 3560 then source-dest IP/MAC can be considered. So in this
case it would depend on the traffic type. So if we're within a single vlan
src-dst mac would be the solution, but if traffic is L3 then we'd want to
use IP.

Is that all there is to it, or is there something else I'm missing?
