Custom chains come in handy when one has a lot of filters. If the traffic flow is split into different chains, a lot of processing power can be saved.
Firewall filters are traversed from top to bottom. Filter chains are a way to group rules that make sense to group. Say you have 5 rules that match different TCP options, it makes no sense to process those for each UDP packet. So one could put those 5 rules in it's own filter chain and then add a single rule that jumps to that chain on protocol=tcp. An improperly defined ruleset can absolutely destroy packet processing performance.
look at the chains like this: 1) each chain ends with accept. 2) going to the end of the rules in the system (default) chains will advance packet further into the packet flow 3) going to the end of the custom chain will bring the packet back to where it jumped. And next rule of source chain will be applied to it.
Yes, if you need let's say to block websites, you can use jump to skip other redundant firewall filter match.
