No, there are too many features that depend on having the metadata, such as checking title/author dups. It's been discussed before.

Download is multi-threaded for different sites, but not a single site.

Some sites, if they see you downloading in parallel, will block you entirely. FFF is designed to avoid that happening. And no, I'm not interested in making that a per-site option.

novelfull.com in particular takes a long time to collect metadata because it only lists 50 chapters per page, so a story with 1500 chapters (not rare on that site) will need 30 requests just to get the chapter list for metadata.

If you like, you can experiment with making the slow_down_sleep_time setting lower than the default value of 2sec under [novelfull.com].
