vdev has the read throughput of 1 drive for random reads.  Compared
to #drives for a stripe.  That's pretty significant.

Okay, then if the person can stand to lose even more space, do zfs mirroring on each JBOD. Then we'd have a mirror of mirrors instead of a mirror of raidz's.

Remember, the OP wanted chassis-level redundancy as well as redundancy within the domain of each chassis. You can't do that now with ZFS unless you combine ZFS with SVM.
