Used to (bar buggy firmware, incompatibilities). Most hardware raid
cards nowadays not only have sufficient processing power, they also come
with decent sizes of RAM cache which helps swing things a lot in their
favour.
If the load goes beyond what the card can handle, then yes, Linux
software raid is the way to go.

Exactly how much throughput are you realistically anticipating? What
connection are you going to use? 802.11 or 10/100 or gige? And yes,
the chips will pretty much always give you better performance with raid.
Hardware raid gives better performance. Both of those are
"fakeraid".It won't perform any better than software raid.
