Do I have to rebuild my jails too when I rebuild the server?

No, I was using that as an example for the host. I don't think top will work
in a jail.

Not really. Update kernel, then:
make buildworld
make installworld
make DESTDIR=/jail1 installworld
make DESTDIR=/jail2 installworld

You only need to compile once.

uhm... we're talking binaries here. I'm not sure why you would need to restore
your config files. But making backups is always a good practice.
