That being the case. The water rate from supply is irrelevant as the tank is the buffer.
If the flow rate to the shower from the cylinder is greater than the flow rate from the supply then the buffer cylinder will become empty of water..
and a big shower pump is what you want eh?
If you suck ( pump ) water out of a unvented cylinder faster than the supply can replenish the cylinder then you could create a situation where a vacuum is created in the cylinder and it crumples inwards. ( or maybe unvented cylinders have safety devices to prevent a vacuum being created, I don't know )
