- adapter_fastnovelnet: Update to redirected Story URL.
- adapter_fastnovelnet: 'Normalize' chapter URLs to current storyId URL--site is changing it frequently

The situation you bumped into, while admittedly annoying, is a corner case that shouldn't be all that common.

How many CPUs is your Calibre configured to use? It's a setting under Preferences -> Misc

I will investigate if FFF's parallel processing is still working as intended. It uses Calibre's Server class and I haven't looked at it in any detail in a while.

Since you can already launch separate updates by site if you really want to, I'm not very inclined to add it as a new feature.

I honestly think we'd have more people asking questions after turning it on without understanding than we'd have people it would benefit.

I looked at the chapter that was downloaded, and it seems fine... But I could envision the site getting snarky in the future and sending out some trash when using the "old" url... I guess we'll have to cross that bridge when it's burning.
That's the difference between selecting the book(s) and hitting update vs updating from URL. I assume most updates are from update notification emails with URLs, so that's what I tested.

I've addressed the redirect story URL change now while I still remember about it.
