i don't know how ZFS exactly allocates space, but i use gconcat with UFS
and it isn't true.
UFS do "jump" between zones (called cyllinder group) when files are
written to prevent unevenly filling them, so every zone always has some
space to allocate.
The effect is that both drives gets quite evenly filled
