With PETSc, you will have to specify that you are using a non-zero

KSPSetInitialGuessNonzero(ksp, PETSC_TRUE)

If this is not set, it will reset the vector to zero and sure, then
there is nothing to be gained. I haven't looked if a similar behavior
exists for the Deal.II internal solvers.

The deal.II solvers simply start with whatever values are in the solution vector whenever you call
  cg.solve (system_matrix, solution, system_rhs, preconditioner);
