on a pressurised plumbing system you would have no expansion pipe and better insulation therefore a lot less heat loss, you would also obviously have better pressure supplied by a single flow pump although this could also be achieved on a non pressurised system by fitting a duel flow pump after the cylinder as opposed to before the cylinder on a pressurised system!
i supposed the downside would be the cylinder would be a few bob more expensive
if its your heating system your talking about then the same applies about no expansion and less heat loss
