Vacuum Waste system Vs Recirculating

Hi,

Modern aircraft are fitted with vacuum waste system at the opposite of old aircraft that are fitted with recirculating waste system.

a) What are advantages and the disadvantages of vacuum waste system?

b) What are advantages and the disadvantages of recirculating waste system?

c) How often the toilet is used in short/medium aircraft? How full the waste tank after flight?

d) Do you think it is worth to use recirculating waste system in modern short/medium aircraft? If yes/no, why?

Feedback appreciated.
