I would want to distinguish between the Jena API, and the Jena triple stores.

The Jena API was designed to be pretty neutral with respect to the application, 
and does not have predesigined into it any task specific optimizations like 
first write, then read ....

The Jena triple stores implement the API, but when we had to make trade-offs 
between one way of doing things or another, we would make the judgment based on 
our sense of where most RDF apps would be.

TBC supports many different triple stores, which implement the Jena API.
The designers of these triple stores, will have seen the world differently, and 
made different trade offs from the Jena team, so for some applications one 
would expect a non-Jena implementation of the Jena API to be superior.
[In fact, given the different business goals of the different teams involved, 
one would expect this perhaps even for most applications]
