Why would you run several smaller capacitors in parallel versus one large one? Is there a benefit? Faster discharge?

You wouldn't. It's not legal to parallel conductors smaller than 1/0.
I have no idea what "faster discharge" means. Sorry.

HAHAHA... wow, did I misread that one or what. That's what I get for replying first thing in the AM.
Thanks HK for the heads up.
