(1) About the same peak current, but slightly longer rise time due to mechanical loading.
(2) Yes. See attached data.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
