I have a storage tank that is 60 feet in diameter and 60 feet high, I have a pressurized with 100 psi, is it quicker to fill this tank from the top of from the bottom

What do you think? Why? I will assume this is a homework question. Otherwise you can Google
pumping power for filling tank from bottom vs top (http://www.thescienceforum.com/general-discussion/41831-pumping-power-filling-tank-bottom-vs-top.html)

Lots of unknowns built into this question, such as: 100 PSI measured where? Is the tank to hold liquid, or gas?
