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.
