Yes, and that should actually be item 3 in drawbacks. Zchunked rpms will be larger than the current xz-compressed rpms, but the actual size increase is still unknown. I think we can shoot for roughly the same size as a gzip-compressed rpm, but I'm not sure. Mirror storage *might* actually go down, since we no longer need to store deltarpms, but anything that only stores rpms will definitely require more space.
