PowerPath and I/O Threads

I'm wondering during a troubleshooting exercise on a Windows host how PowerPath handles single threaded and multi threaded applications and their I/O. If a single thread batch file were to kick off some I/O requests to the SAN, will the load-balancing features of PP "manage" that thread across a single link if there is heavy I/O across both paths, or will it balance it regardless of application behavior?
