Yes, CPU and RAM usage stay roughly the same when I start playing a video. This is, however, is not surprising given that my TrueNAS system has a Ryzen 7 5825U, up to 4 cores of which can be allocated to the Jellyfin container. I suppose it is more that enough for a direct play. The RAM is plenty as well with most of it either allocated to my ZFS Cache with a ~3Gb free.
Haven't tried monitoring the IO speeds though. The videos are located on Seagate X18 drives. When playing, the read spikes up to ~30MiB/s.
