Yes, that would probably be the smartest design if the file names are randomized or evenly distributed. I know the users directories at Sourceforge are organized like that (something like /home/u/us/username). Unfortunately, I've inherited a legacy system, and first need to determine if it's worth the trouble to change the design.
Maybe I should create a JFS partition on a virtual Linux machine and do some benchmarking. I don't have access to an idle AIX machine comparable to the one used in production. Of course, such a test would differ from "reality" in some ways: different OS, CPU architecture and storage solutions (local IDE drive compared to SAN).
