Answer 1

The JIRA REST API will give you all the info from each issue at a rate of a few issues/second. The Inquisitor add-on at https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.citrix.jira.inquisitor will give you thousands of issues per second but only the standard JIRA fields.

Answer 2

There is one other way. There is one table in JIRA database named "dbo.jiraissue". If you have access to that database then you can fetch all the ids of all issues. After fetching this data you can send this REST request "**localhost/rest/api/2/issue/issue_id" and get JSON response. Of course you have to write some code for this but this is one way I know to get all issues.
