I am not sure i understand the question. The "Default Application Pool" is
an application pool, and it has all the advantages of an application pool.

Are you asking about the benefits of application pools (multiple
application pools)?

Application pools are a new feature of IIS6 and allow you to execute groups
of code in their own process, so for instance one application crashing will
only affect other applications in the same app pool. A default pool exists to
get you started, as it were, and you can use the same pool for all
applications or add new ones as and when required.
