Flying fatigue

With the intro of long range flights reaching some 15 hours plus with multi crews, one would think that gives enough rest to the non flying crew members having a bunk to sleep. But will they sleep as if at home ? Does their mind not stop being concerned with the state of the flight ? And what are the real effects of time zone differences (jet lag) in the cumulative when scheduled on long haul routes with few days off in between ? Legal ..... sure....................but I am just saying !
