No.
Of course, another zone performing i/o on the same disk could
be moving the head away from where your zone wants it. On the
other hand they all share the same page cache, so a user who
starts up vi in another zone before you do will have already
paged in the text you need, so from your perspective your
first invocation of vi could be faster due to reduced i/o
latency.
